That co-operation will be somewhat limited. You can certainly expect everything
in the GTK+ stack to support other desktops to reasonable degree. Everything
above that is GNOME components, not a toolbox for alternative desktops.

So, the onus is on you - if you need legacy things from the GNOME stack, you
will have to help shape them in a way that does not affect the rest of GNOME.
E.g, if you want desktop icons to work the way they always did, contribute by
moving desktop rendering out of nautilus in its own process. Etc.
