Oooh, that is not simple at all! (It shouldn't break, but it's quite complex...)

People do care, the more recent GNOME versions received tons of
improvements for the systray, which will of course be available in
Debian too, very soon (if you're not using Experimental).
So, I assume that GNOME3 will go through some more iterations and be a
very usable desktop then :) And even now, you can customize it, OR
just use the fallback mode, which provides a GNOME2-like interface.
