This sounds like it's as Gnome3 is intended to be. To fix it you need
to install a few extensions, I found this covers almost everything I
think is broken-by-design in Gnome3:

Which also does most of what you're after. Reverting to Unity on Natty
is non-trivial, since you've just replaced a lot of Gnome2 libraries
with their differently-behaving Gnome3 ones. Oneiric's Unity is
Gnome3-based so that *may* be a simpler way to get back to unity.
