Strange, because I have Ubuntu 12.04 right now, and it seems to have
Gnome 3 but no Gnome shell, so at least it seems to be optional… And
if Gnome shell is optional, I suppose Unity also is. Therefore,
wouldn't it be possible to install Gnome 3 replacing Gnome shell with,
for example, the Gnome panel?
I just though that Gnome shell is a shell for Gnome, hence the name,
isn't that right?

No Gnome in Xubuntu as far as I know. And I don't like XFCE (or any of
the other lightweight desktops I've seen so far). I don't want the
lightest possible operating system, I want the lightest possible
Debian based (or at least Debian compatible) Gnome distribution.
That's quite different, I think.
