If you'd have js-jquery version 3 obsolete all other js-jquery packages, you'd upgrade it in all places, most probably leaving users with a broken setup, there are a few breaking changes between 2 and 3. [1] A safe path would introduce js-jquery2, obsoleting js-jquery <= (specific version, like 2.2.4-1) and then introduce js-jquery as newer major version. There are currently 16 packages requiring js-jquery, they'd need to be changed to explicitly require js-jquery2; after that change, we should be good to upgrade js-query to jquery3. Does that sound reasonable?
