Regarding this, I'm more worried about the human side of it then the
tech one. Convincing *hundreds* of plugin devs to upgrade their plugin
is a huge task, and if we fail to upgrade many of them, users will stick
to older QGIS versions, thereby effectively forking the project. I have
seen this in other projects, and the consequences are quite negative.
I think we should:
* start now warning plugin devs to prepare for the transition
* provide guidance and, if feasible, tools to smooth out the upgrade.
I'd be in favour of setting aside some resources for this.
All the best.
