Hm, ok, so you're saying "with gnome shell".
I probably won't want to use gnome shell anyway, so I guess that's not
such a problem.
Anyway, my original question was about metacity: will it still have the
buttons?
If MC continues to have the buttons, then that will be a good
alternative for people that don't like the new paradigm.

I wasn't really calling them insane, I was saying that was the general
tone of web-scuttlebutt about this change ("There's a lot of talk
recently about the gnome devs going insane and removing the minimize and
maximize buttons in gnome 3.").
