Please do not forget that the whole gnome-flashback (source) package fixes
a lot of problems with gnome-panel. If we remove src:gnome-flashback from
testing, that will leave gnome-panel users without:

- Wallpaper;
- Mouse cursor;
- End Session dialogs.

You may say that gnome-panel should be removed as well, but please do not
forget that there are 8 other source packages depending on it, so they should
get removed as well in that case.

I think the best solution will be to leave things as-is. But if you convince
the Release Team that removing 10 packages (or backporting 800 lines of code
to add keyboard grabber) is a good idea, I will be fine with that.
