The << version requirements are just cosmetic, to silence Debian
packaging warnings. The version requirements can easily be removed but
that wouldn't change the libmutter version numbers.

I don't see breaking gnome-shell as sensible when all consumers of old
libmutter would be broken. And I expect it will be correct to add
another breaks each cycle, as annoying as that might seem. If you want
to fix it properly then the common files would need to move to a
version-specific subdirectory so they can coexist (and no "common"
package!), but I'm not sure how or if GNOME can support that.
