It's intended for fallback mode use only in GNOME3 (and thus what you are really looking for is a forward port of the GNOME2.x panel if you want to get back the 2.x experience). Think upon it like what Canonical did to create the fallback in Unity. Unfortunately, the GNOME3.x "panel" is also integrated with the whole overall Shell concept, so trying to run it in any other setup won't work. > I thought Gnome 3 didn't have one!

They're trying to kill it off and go to a unified single approach based on shoving everything into the window manager in Javascript, but haven't quite reached that point of nirvana yet. Anyway, welcome to the party. I looked at 2.x panel code for a while with a view to porting it onto the later GTK. Then I thought about it and asked myself why I'd want to spend my spare time fixing that for them when Xfce is clearly the better investment of spare time. I suggest you make the switch entirely and we collectively figure out what's going on with your switching between workspaces.
