IIRC you can use apps like nautilus without Xorg, for exemple with ssh et X forwarding, so for me this is not a bug 

Olav what do you think ?

Minimal is really minimal anyway. I think it only exists for livecd reasons. I'll ask on mailing list for the policy.

per mailing list, added the suggest in task-gnome-3.3.2-10.mga2
