i use it in 11.04 and it hides.. so the screen space grabbing is not an issue

doomgiver as I said judge Unity by 11.04 not 10.10. It's not perfect yet, rather not quite good enough yet but it's a work in progress and the basic ideas are good. The Unity in 10.10 on the other hand sucked.
And if you haven't used Unity in 11.04 then you aren't qualified to comment on Unity.

Ok let me get a few things straight..
People want an option between Unity and Gnome at install time? Makes no sense to me. AFAIK Ubuntu lets you chose either the Classic/Unity interface after you have installed.
And from what I've gathered Unity is BUILT ON TOP of Gnome only utilising Compiz (starting 11.04).
I don't like Unity that much but I'am not bent on strangling canonical. They let me use the basic interface which works for me. I do believe Gnome 3 will work out really well but it needs time. Hence I see sense in their decision to not use it in this release and I guess they are shifting to Gnome 3 next release. So sticking with stability is the right thing imo.
Would all this ruckus still be raised if Ubuntu still came in the old Gnome? I don't think so. I think we need to view Unity as an added feature not forced option.

No they are not. It will be Unity based on Gnome 3, rather than Gnome 2 as in 11.04. They are not going to use Gnome Shell.

You mean gnome-shell? The user can install it yes. The only default fallback option will be Unity-2D.

i liked unity but it's buggy nature made me shift to gnome shell
the gnome shell on 11.04 was also not stable enough for me..(though it was not as bad as unity.. where i had random logouts and hangs)
so i finally installed 10.04 LTS today....
seems much better

sometimes the unity bar does comes out when you move your mouse left. i need to click here & there only then it slides out. happens mostly while working with OO files.

Keep note that Gnome 3 in 11.04 will break Unity.
