I agree with what other commenters have posted. The new Gnome 2.22, while providing a lot of new functionality, is hardly "revolutionary!" Policy-kit sounds like just another obtuse security mechanism that most people won't use. The other "features" like pulseaudio and GVFS seem too immature to be taken seriously at the moment. I'm sure these innovations are important, i'm just not sure they'll be well received at the moment.
