While I've read so many complain about the non-customizable aspects of
Gnome 3, I've seen very few people highlighting how fast gnome-shell is
in version 3 compared to version 2. If the MATE extensions are getting
into SID, then we'll have best of both worlds, which would be great.

How about convincing Mint guys to work together with Debian so that
it can be "upstreamed" to us?
