A need to support of 2 *minor* versions of Scala is ludicrous, of course. 
[...snipping my own muttering about Scala infamous backward compatibility...] 

But here's another catch: if both dev. env. for 2.10 and 2.11 would be
required in order to build Ignite it will complicate the life of the
downstream integrators, most obviously Bigtop, where we'll have to support 2
versions of Scala in the toolchain. Which it unlikely to happen as Bigtop
isn't in business of paying for silly Scala decisions.
