Setting up as won't fix (I already think I've answered you on my blog
post comments on that particular topic):

We are going to have assumptions on the ubuntu-session that the ubuntu
experience == having the dock on the session, hence the dep from the
seed (like you can't remove gdm without removing ubuntu-desktop).

If you want to customize freely your session, we introduced to that effect the 
vanilla session, where no extension is mandatory by default, and you can do 
what you want there. The dock won't be enabled in that session, you can even 
remove it, which will remove the "ubuntu-dekstop" metapackage and can choose 
your own theme, extenstions and so on.
For this, just install gnome-session. We keep control over our ubuntu-session, 
but let you choose and cutomize the gnome-session or just use upstream default 
behavior (which was never possible before 17.10).

** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
