The main problem is that recent version of some libraries are available only for gtk3. It already hit us with libchamplain-gtk - currently it is not possible to compile the gps map pane. The same problem will be with clutter-gtk if we want to use hw acceleration or replace Pan view in the future. So I think that we have to migrate to gtk3 or we end with old and unmaintained libraries soon or later. gtk2 and 3 can co-exist on the same system, but not in the same application. The list of required changes is quite long, see: http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.5/gtk-migrating-2-to-3.html I am not sure if it is possible to maintain code that compiles against both versions. Maybe it is a better idea to clean up the code and continue with gtk3 only.
