While it may be "technically" behaving as intended, the bottom line is this change has stripped features I normally use.

Case and point:

My network printer was not automatically discovered. Therefore, I wanted to add it via IP using LPD as I always have in the past. Where do I go for that now? I see zero accessibility for end users to handle this task. This is why it's so frustrating. Features that once existed and were heavily utilized are now either misplaced or gone.

Logic would suggest adding an "Advanced" menu for users to manually put in the settings they need for their printers. Why can't we have that? Just an Advanced button that calls for system-config-printer or something along those lines. It would solve so many headaches, as several relatives of mine already on 11.10/Gnome Shell are already running into this.
