How do I get rid of all the Unity bars?

To make my question as simple as possible, I'll start with showing my desktop, so that I don't need to describe everything in words:

Basically this is how I have been using Ubuntu 10.04 since it's been released: all ubuntu/gnome panels erased and only AWN (Awant Window Navigator) running on the left side of the screen.

How possible is it to get as close to this look as possible in Ubuntu 11.10 without downgrading to gnome 2?

Possible solutions I can roughly think of, but am not sure how to accomplish them:

1) Use Unity interface, hide the Unity launcher and try to get used to the necessary top panel (I don't think that can be erased, or can it?)

2) Use Gnome interface and somehow erase all the panels/launchers?

Well almost - once this bug is resolved then the top pesky nautilus menu-bar will disappear!

How to...

Some prerequisites - install gnome-session-fallback & avant-window-navigator.

Logout and login with the new session "gnome classic"

start awn-settings and configure awn as you need to - ensure you tick the box to start awn automatically.

Run gnome-session-properties and add a new item compiz --replace

Edit /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session and remove "gnome-panel"

Edit /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-fallback.session and remove "gnome-panel"

Logout and login
