  The panel remains, but it will be a GTK3 / D-Bus panel. In its current
  state, it doesn’t support the good old GTK2 / bonobo applets, of which
  we have a lot in the archive. Upstream confirmed they don’t have time to
  support them for 3.0 unless someone steps up to do the job. 
 
 This is only partially correct though.  gnome-panel will remain, but in
 a heavily modified state -- the intention for the GNOME 3 version of
 gnome-panel is having it as a fallback in case gnome-shell isn't
 supported, and thus a lot of features will be gutted or altered to
 ensure that it behaves as similar as possible to gnome-shell.

AIUI, this is mostly a different default configuration. Nothing prevents
us from shipping another one.

 People who have been expressing concern about this have, reasonably
 enough, been told that gnome-panel 2.32 is probably what they really
 want.  Are there any plans to provide this package?

No.

 Thats a matter of opinion.

They just changed the default way to do it, and they didn't remove the
possibility to revert the change. And having used it for a few days, I
must say it's quite convincing.

What's convincing?  I mean, maximize isn't too much of an issue --
double-clicking on the title bar seems reasonably convenient and
intuitive -- but making minimize inconvenient _is_ an issue, especially
since there doesn't seem to be a good reason for doing so.
