Out of curiosity, how many visual changes do you expect from a mere GTK+3 port? And how come the breaking of the API isn't what the team reserved 3.0 for?
If it were just a mere library change without any impact to the users, would it warrant a major version change? Gimp will change only the release number for such "minor" things as internal architecture (high-bit depth, GEGL) and new file format, so the version change must be for something even more radical?
Just trying to find a bit of logic in that numbering scheme...
