I guess I'm not the only crazy one that actually prefers Unity and
Gnome, then. Although, right now I have Gnome as my primary window
manager, but I also have a full-screen Xephyr (like Xnest, an X server
in a window) on one monitor that runs XMonad, which is a highly
configurable tiling window manager. At some point I'd like to find a
better way to make them co-exist, but this works for now.
