You need to expect breakage. That gnome-panel hasn't been updated for e-d-s 3.5.3 is one of those breakages. We'll try to keep gnome-panel/metacity alive for the time being and offer that as separate session. We will basically have a/ GNOME - GNOME Shell b/ GNOME Classic - new classic mode of GNOME Shell [1]. Unfortunately uses the same name as we used for fallback mode in wheezy c/ GNOME Flashback - session consisting of gnome-panel and metacity (and various other bits like polkit-gnome, nm-applet, notification-daemon). Doesn't require 3D. It's more or less the old Fallback mode [2] We'll see how maintainable c/ will be in the long run. There's a good chance that we can offer this option for jessie, but beyond that, I don't know.
