Otherwise we are looking at possibly reforking gnome-bluetooth at this point in time.
Reforking? And then wait until the bitrot sets in again? ;-)
Can't you just use gnome-bluetooth proper and resurrect the panel icon stuff like Kalev proposed?
Not so simple as reverting a commit. Must discuss with upstream.

Also as Wolfgang (comaintainer for MATE) said and I personally would like to reiterate:
"3. Also runtime dependencies needs to be checked, we don't want to be install more gnome as necessary in mate."
The whole point of forking to be dependant on gnome upstream as little as possible.
If you want to be independent of GNOME upstream, you need the resources to keep up to date with upstream changes in a timely fashion. It's not going to work for Fedora to delay moving to new upstream releases of major components for entire release cycles because MATE didn't have the resources to be ready for the change.
