Another issue is that Gnome3 needs 3D and does not work with x2go (and probably freenx/nx if that is going to be packaged). And I almost never work directly at a console. KDE seems to mostly work, but it is annoying to have to switch after all these years of RedHat pushing GNOME.
To clear something up, IIRC 7 uses GNOME Classic - not stock GNOME 3 - as its default, which does *not* require 3D.
I was under the impression that Gnome3 classic is just a set a of gnome-shell extensions and a different CSS theme. Does it do something more that makes Gnome3 not require 3D?
I thought Fallback mode (non-3d) was dropped when llvmpipe came onto the scene.

In the default desktop, GNOME looks a lot like GNOME 2x.
This isn't to say we shouldn't package Mate or Xfce or any additional desktops for CentOS - but it'd be good to make sure people are moving away from the defaults as an informed choice.
Best,
