I would advise to be watchful for dependencies that might play into Canonical's agenda. Package dependencies from Ubuntu Desktop, Unity and more that, even if it is GNOME, are going to force users certain packages on their system. Would be _funny_ if both co-exist and Ubuntu GNOME is better than Ubuntu default out-of-the-box. When was their release?
