People like you (and me) will have to go through a learning curve, which either ends up in total satisfaction, an arrangement with or in a divorce from Gnome3 and/or Fedora. I for one will likely stay with F14 on my "productive systems", will start to experiment with other DE's on F15 and with other distributions on experimental installations. Momentarily, I have no idea were this will lead me to or, on a wider scope, which impact Gnome 3 in F15 will have on Fedora in general.
