+      The GNOME 3 desktop manager module sports an interface to enable/disable core services, applications, and optional GNOME packages
+      like games.

+      With these options we hope to give users finer grained control over their systems. Prior to this change you'd either have to manually
+      disable options or use <option>environment.gnome3.excludePackages</option> which only excluded the optional applications.
+      <option>environment.gnome3.excludePackages</option> is now unguarded, it can exclude any package installed with <option>environment.systemPackages</option>
+      in the GNOME 3 module.
