I also think it's very important to have similar way to change System Preferences and do Administration tasks like in previous Ubuntu versions (for example because there are many documentation for users, which describes this way, also users are already get accustomed to the way how to change System Preferences/Administration in Ubuntu). Luckily this problem is already fixed by upstream developers - look at this bugreport: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402797 ([Patch] Make it easier to switch back to Preferences menus) We need just to activate usual way to change in Ubuntu preferences, like described in comments of bugreport above. In GNOME bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398970 (Issues with the new control center) is mentioned one good idea about keeping the system/preferences hierarchical submenus in gnome-menu bar: We should use control-center window in slab (gnome-main-menu applet), but leave usual way (keep the system/preferences hierarchical submenus) in top gnome-menu bar. -- "GNOME Control Center" is not a good name for menu item https://launchpad.net/bugs/79164 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
