Off the top of my head we have (I'm sure there is more, but ):

* Package name / artifact structure cleanup (breaking change, but minor
impact)
* Remove CAS modules
* Replace deprecated code (or move to an implementation/private package,
for anything still needed)
* Support javax.annotation.security annotations (or whatever they are now
under Eclipse).  These annotations work a little different from the Shiro
ones.
* Update to Jakarta dependencies (or figure out a way to work with both,
abstracting the HTTP logic), bigger lift (or maybe two different 'web'
packages?)

The Jakarta ones have me a little worried though, I think many of the
current Shiro users would have a hard time making the switch anytime soon.
Which could kill the adoption of a 2.0.
We could (and probably should) abstract the web specifics out in order to
support the _current_ API, Jakarta EE, and other non-servlet stacks
(reactive).
That said, it's a likely a bunch of work (and again, I'm guessing most of
the user base would use the current API), so this _could_ be a 3.0 item.

Thoughts?
