I also suffered gnome3 and also moved to xfce.  I didn't try (or know of) the
fallback mode. I liked the look of gnome3 but hated the behaviour of
it.

xfce has some annoying features of its own (alt-tab beeps for example,
though thats fixed with xset b off) but it doesn't get between me and
what I'm trying to do; gnome3 reminds me of that damn paperclip.

Ah, that explains the dependencies that got pulled in with Debian.
