You're right, gnome-themes-standard was never pulled in by the base 
packages.  Adding it, now I get a blue striped background instead of 
plain blue.  But still no "Activities    date     Username" at the top 
of the screen as I used to.

I get exactly that, thanks for the tip.

Also, I've found that most of the GNOME3 packages have to be forced on 
because of file conflicts with 2.32 versions.
