As a follow-up, installing gnaome-tweak-tool allows one to restore the minimize and maximize buttons to each window.
When switching apps, Alt-Tab brings up the list of apps, but while continuing to hold down the Alt key, pressing left goes through the list from right to left. When one gets to an app with more than one window while still holding the Alt key, down arrow and then left or right selects one of the multiple windows. Apps that used the former system tray now place their icons in a special bar at the bottom of the screen. Moving the mouse to the lower right corner makes the bar visible. I am seeing my apps from Spideroak and WiCD in that area. Not GNOME 3 specific although related. I have noticed that the version of Network Manager in Wheezy and Oneiric will get a bad case of dropping the network when streaming audio to a PulseAudio server over the network. It seems that WiCD has no such issue and handles the streaming just fine. In times past I would purge NM after installing WiCD as they don't play together in my experience. Now the gnome-core and gnome packages are dependent on NM so I had to leave it installed and change all of its S links in /etc/rc[2-5].d to K links. It seems as though gnome-core should have a co-depends on either network-manager-gnome or wicd. That may be worthy of a bug report. - Nate >> -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
