Why didn't the folks making all the noise "get involved" earlier?
      
For the same reason the vast majority of people are always
shocked by the open source developers: Most people have better
things to do with their time than obsessively follow every
open source project on the off chance that the developers will
decide to do something incomprehensibly silly (and, of course,
there is also the fact that once they get something silly
in their head, trying to talk them out of it and argue that
in fact nothing is the best thing to do gets you labelled
as merely a no-nothing obstructionist whom they are perfectly
justified in utterly ignoring).

Obsessively follow? All you had to do was install Fedora 12, 13 or 14
and hit the 'GNOME Shell' button in desktop-effects.
  
The only thing that you didn't think about is there a some of us that didn't use desktop-effects or 3D on the desktop at all.
