I don't think it was guaranteed for the whole GNOME 3 lifecycle (although, I personally believe it might have been nice to do so, but our resources makes it impossible). Keep in mind that when 3.8 will be out next March, it will be nearly two years since the 3.0 relese -- that's quite some time already.

Did you miss the discussion on desktop-devel-list about the future of the fallback mode [1]? If no, how could it have been made more transparent? To me, the discussion clearly highlighted that there was a problem of manpower to keep maintaining the fallback mode an official part of GNOME, with the quality standards we expect from such an official component.
