It is currently not an issue, configure checks for gtk+-2.0, so 3.0 isn't
considered yet. Also, other libraries (rsvg, gconf possibly dbus) must also
be moved forward.
Apart from that, it is the question of how old Gtk+ we should support.
Currently we say 2.6 (which is really old) or newer. Most accessor functions
in Gtk+ where introduced in 2.14, some in 2.16, and in one case, 2.20.
We could add #ifdef:s, but I rather not do that unless we really need to.
That said, I have a private branch that works with Gtk+ 3.0, and some of the
fixes there can go in the trunk. Maybe we should bump required to 2.14 and
get most of the work checked in.
