This probably makes sense, but to point out the obvious, if this is
done, patches for every core GNOME module have to be landing within
minutes after the GtkStyle removal.

I'm going back to harping on this because 48 hours after the
deprecation of GtkStyle, there are still modules in core GNOME that
are failing to build - e.g. gnome-power-manager, because they have
the combination of GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED and -Werror 
and other modules that are building but likely miscompiling - 
e.g. gnome-control-center- because they have GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
without -Werror.
