+I know what you mean. I feel the very same.
+* You get the a somelike systray, if you move the mouse to the 
+bottom-right corner (at least networkmanager and mgaonline is there).
+* virtual desktops are now known as "Activities". If a window is already 
+open, go to the top-left corner (like when you want to open new apps). 
+There you find on the right an extra panel, which enlarges if you hover 
+the mouse.
