I know, but I already explained the design choices, and I don't want
to change this now.

I was thinking about the following solution for the GTK3 change:
* create a branch for what will be the 4.2 version
* in master, change the requirements to GTK3 and associated libraries versions
* maintain both branches in sync with regards to evolutions

when 4.2 is released, do a 4.2 to work with GTK2 a,d a 5.0 to work with GTK3

What do you think?
