Hi all,
As I have the same/similar issue, I tried the above :-

$ gsettings reset-recursively org.gnome.gnome-panel

I had to reboot and in new session it was the same thing, wasn't able
to add anything to the bottom panel. I tried the 'window list' applet
and no sugar for me.

One thing to note though - the notification area which had disappeared
in the top-panel returned, apart from that no change.
