As mentioned on irc, gnome-session update was blocked due to > 3.9.90 crashing when running under gnome-desktop 3.8.
gnome-panel provides its own dialogs, however seems they are only used when clicking through the system menu. I can revert the dialogs for now, but would seem consistent if fallback sessions always used gnome-panel dialogs. 

re comment #5, the patch was there just the changelog entry was
incorrect.

Title:
  [FFe] gnome-desktop 3.12 transition

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “gnome-desktop3” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  We have been trying to land this transition for about 9 months now
  (well previously was 3.10, but that was largely the same). The big
  blocker was the removal of xrandr and idlemonitor code out of gnome-
  desktop. Robert Ancell has solved that issue see Bug 1372240 (however
  that still hasn't landed yet.

  There is a SONAME bump, however that only affects g-s-d/g-c-c (and
  u-s-d/u-c-c until above changes land). Mostly apps are using things
  like the thumbnailer etc, and these are not affected by api changes,
  so they just need to be rebuilt. gnome-session will need to be updated
  to latest 3.10 stable release.

  I have debian merges ready to go for gnome-desktop, g-s-d and g-c-c
  3.12 (but using 3.10 power plugin/panel to untangle from upower 0.99).

  gnome-control-center update will also require a UIFe, Ubuntu GNOME
  slideshow has not yet been updated for utopic, so this shouldnt be a
  problem from our side. No other flavours use the UI part of gnome-
  control-center anymore, the shared-data (faces) are unchanged.
