Hello everyone,
I upgraded on a Desktop and missed the colourful GRUB screen which is now replaced by a black one, but was disappointed to no longer be able to right click in empty space on the panel and choose "add applet". How can I do that now? Thanks.

Try alt-right click.

Wow I never thought of that and it works so thank you! I'm not sure why it
changed, but OK.

Nobody else knows either. Ask the Gnome 3 guys. ;)

Talk about counter-intuitive behaviour!

Yes. It is an annoying change IMO.

I like this change -- prevents me against those annoying accidental changes to my environment.

But I think that will be good to announce the change to the user the first time he right-clicks on the panel.

Unfortunately there is a lot of counter-intuitive stuff being implemented
across the board on the desktop. Canonical is working on improving
consistency between applications. I'm hoping what that means is they are
implementing standardised file, save, print, etc across applications and
maybe improving the clipboard so when you exit an application the data isn't
necessarily lost. Things which drive you nuts as a new user to the operating
system. While it isn't so bad for me today I believe there is little point to
keeping things the way they are. I do understand there are many reasons for
not keeping content in a centralised clipboard from security to memory
usage... but there has to be a better way.
