[CoLoCo] Getting a Gnome desktop back (was Re: Natty Narwhal (11.04) Release Party)

[Ian Santopietro]

Actually, I find that Gnome3 tends to waste a huge amount of vertical space.
There is not reason to have a hundred pixels for the title/menu bar, IMO.
Maybe this could be fixed with themes, but then again, Unity does the
vertical-space-saving-thingy really well.
