As a side note, it's a bit unpleasant to first, have to implement a new
API, usefull only on Ubuntu and partialy on Debian, and now be forced to
migrate to GTK3 to still support the indicators. Removing GTK2 support
means removing approximately half of the providers of indicator support
(panel) on Ubuntu repositories.

Hey,

Sure it's unpleasant but reality is that GTK2 is unmaintained for over 1.5 years, that GTK3 is default in Ubuntu and other distributions for over a year and that has been shipped in a LTS. We need at some point to move forward and port our code to the current GTK version (we kept the GTK2 indicator stack in the LTS only for derivatives but it's creating issues and extra work for us, we can't keep doing that for ever)...
