'gnome-classic' does not allow for icons in top panel anymore
When i select 'gnome-classic (no effects) from the lightdm login screen, the Gnome version (version 2?) does not allow me anymore to put icons on the top panel. Not anymore via the right-mouse-button by selecting an application in the menu, nor by right-mouse-button selection on the panel (there is no menu there anymore).
Why has this disappeared?
The Unity interface is REALLY not user-friendly for people that need their computer to work instead of playing games and tweaking wobbling windows.

I thought that something was missing in the panel, because I couldn't put icons on it anymore (the gnome-classic 'no-effects' version). But it turned out that you need the Alt key to drag icons into the panel. This was probably in some manual that I never read.
Can you help with this problem?
