hello @Hi-Angel
Sorry for the misconceptions, the deal with i3-gnome is that you're still using GNOME as a 'backend thing', you don't get the panels and visual stuff from GNOME but you're using GNOME stuff like the audio manager in this case if you plug-in your headphones you don't have to load an external app for manage that stuff, also you're using way lot better GTK+ integration so you don't have to do hardconfigs to maintain a good looking feel for most of the software that uses GTK (firefox and so on), and in addition you're using the i3 that you know as a window manager instead of the window manager of GNOME (metacity {wayland} or whatever GNOME uses now).
hope this help you.
Cheers!

I don't quite understand from descriptions here or in README: should it have Gnome's panel with all its applets, or no? Because for me it doesn't, it looks completely like a usual i3 session, except that now I have a bunch of gnome* processes in RAM.

@epidings totally forgotten, updated now!, thanks.

Thanks for the update!
I guess, this line in PKGBUILD should be:
source=(i3-gnome-2.1.zip::https://github.com/lvillani/i3-gnome/archive/2.1.zip)

For gnome-settings-daemon 3.24 issue, replace /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/i3-gnome.session with following should work.
# -*- mode: conf -*-

Mey by just sending the 'Logout' message should be fine
Pinky commented on 2016-11-22 00:36 (UTC)
solved by:
cat /usr/bin/i3-gnome
#!/bin/sh
# Register with gnome-session so that it does not kill the whole session thinking it is dead.
test -n "$DESKTOP_AUTOSTART_ID" && {
dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager "/org/gnome/SessionManager" org.gnome.SessionManager.RegisterClient "string:i3-gnome" "string:$DESKTOP_AUTOSTART_ID"
}
i3
test -n "$DESKTOP_AUTOSTART_ID" && {
dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.gnome.SessionManager "/org/gnome/SessionManager" org.gnome.SessionManager.Logout "uint32:1"
}

The recent update is regarding the PKGBUILD, I've found a little misconception in the installation directory.
