Gnome3 fallback mode - fallback?



Some questions regarding the GNOME of Debian testing, that is Gnome3:

in normal, instead of fallback mode,

the application windows no longer have a resize and a minimize button.

Is that intended?

The "Orte" (engl. "places"?) link in the upper left (adjacent to "Applications") is gone.

Is that intended?

Many programs, for example gnome-screenshot (after hitting Print or Alt-Print) show less possibilities, for example the possibility to do a screenshot some seconds later, is gone.

Is that intended?

Is there, instead of the old gnome-screenshot, a more primitive program running? Or is it the same program, running a more primitive mode?

My resumé: The Gnome3 "fallback" mode is wonderful, it is not a fallback mode at all. It has much more possibilities, almost as much as the old (Gnome2). Therefore,

*It should be called professional mode* - while the normal mode is ok when you want a primitive, more iPad or Cell-phone like UI.

How can I force that mode? At present time I execute - as root: dpkg --force-all --purge gnome-session

followed by: /etc/init.d/gdm3 restart
