I'm using gnome 3 in classic mode, and not having any problems with it.
I'm using it (not in classic mode) whenever I need an X session. (I sometimes require accessibility-related tools that only run well under GNOME. If it weren't for that, I'd run a basic window manager instead.)
Mostly, however, I'm still working in Emacs and console sessions. If one can't see the graphics, there isn't much value in running X, other than for applications that really need it, such as browsing Web sites that require JavaScript, the DOM and all those other Web APIs that have proliferated recently around HTML 5.
It's really a pity that edbrowse is too weird for js-happy web apps to work in it :-( Somebody said it was because it doesn't implement the DOM, which I didn't really understand.
