i think moving along with cocoon 2.2 is a very good idea.
but there are also a number of other things on the agenda:
* get rid of areas
* revisit content repository
* generic editor handlers
* 21st century css for the authoring interface
* even more ajax.

i wonder: should we really be starting a 3.0 at this point? it seems
weird to spread our (already small) developer base even thinner...
i think we owe it to our users to invest some more time into the 2.0
branch (with easy upgradeability - let's not fool ourselves: a
transition from cocoon 2.1 to 2.2 will *not* be seamless except for the
most trivial of deployments).
