Have been using Xfce since the the Gnome 3 initial introduction. I only want:

* the main apps menu

* the widget to lock screen, log out, shutdown.

* tabs along the top (or bottom) showing open windows

* the widget with the workspace switcher, clock, and network/printing/whatever status indicator

Last time I looked at Gnome 3, it tried to be like MS's "Cortana" thing where it wanted me to search for everything I wanted, or else have me find things by "most recently used". I want none of that. Xfce has it right. The desktop doesn't need to be reinvented.
