Sounds sensible to me. Quite frankly, extensions are in my opinion one of the killer features of GNome 3. I think we should even use extensions more liberally, breaking with mainstream... it is our prerogative as a distribution after all. But, not being able to suspend would be a very large peeve for me. I've gotten behind Gnome 3 from having been a KDE zealot for some time, and this design choice along with removing the High Contrast accessibility theme are rather foolish decisions in my opinion. -- Roger A.

FYI, you can suspend without the extension by pressing Alt - this will change the Power Off button to Suspend. (Though this is not very discoverable.)
From what I understand, they intend to remove that functionality as
well... which is retarded quite frankly. I think though, that obscuring it the way they do is foolish anyway. If we are going to adhere to upstream, we should find a way to bring the Gnome Cheatsheet to the users attention, as a Firefox homepage or some other such thing.
