And that's what many 3rd party developers like.  Absolutely no changes
except critical bug and platform support fixes.  All the small bugs and
peculiarities are known, are not replaced with a different set of small
bugs and peculiarities in the next release and we've learned how to work
around them.

Actually, I do target Gtk+3 with a program which has a number of its own
widgets.  And I'm constantly anxious and wondering whether it was a good
decision...
