I have a different Gnome 3.2 installation that is in fallback mode.
If I place the above launcher on the top panel (which I cannot do
with the full Gnome 3.2), the drag and drop works as before.

It looks like the use of custom launchers and drag-n-drop has fallen
by the wayside with the full Gnome 3 experience.


You can regain this experience if you start gnome-panel (either in a
terminal or automatically on start of a agnome session). This gives
you the traditional panels with (almost) all features and applets.

In essence, the panel is not gone. It is jut hidden from the user of
the default theme.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it from a terminal and got this error:

$ gnome-panel
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "pk-gtk-module"
Cannot register the panel shell: there is already one running.

I have gnome-shell running, but AFIK not another gnome-panel.
