How extensive the API changes are between libmutter-10 and libmutter-11? Porting the elementary-greeter and gala packages from libmutter-9 to libmutter-10 was comparatively easy (though with some loss of window management functionality), but earlier ports were rather bad and took a long time. If it's an easy port, we'll probably not need another compat package, but if it will take longer, then it's back to dealing with a compat package. And I'd rather not do that again, because that means backporting stuff from the 43.x branch to keep things working, i.e. patches for compatibility with the latest gsettings-desktop-schemas, or gnome-settings-daemon ...
