     The fallback mode has become less and less useful as a pure fallback mode

-    fallback mode mostly stays the same and the difference between GNOME 3 and
-    fallback mode increases with each GNOME release.

     In addition to these issues, some people would like to improve components
     of the fallback mode to work differently -- but in a way that would make

+    fallback mode work more like GNOME 2, and diverge from the GNOME 3
