That may only be true when considering complete rewrites. Porting an
application from Gtk2 to Gtk3 does not at all require that many changes
that you'd need to do a rewrite. (Basically they took that opportunity
to drop old deprecated APIs[1].)
For instance I don't think gedit lost features, but was instead just
ported to Gtk3.

Meh.
