I think it needs to be. Updating from 2.2 to 2.3 is a fairly minor upgrade (except for the continuation thing which was never documented and thus not likely used extensively at all). With 2.2 likely to go into unsupported mode fairly soon, getting Camel out with 2.3 is pretty important. I'd also like to get 2.3 into Camel quickly (at least for the builds) so we can identify anything that NEEDS to be fixed and get them into 2.3.1 which I'd like to do later this month. The camel 3.0 version in Q1 is still not finalized/settled, so I wouldn't use that as part of the decision point.
