Hm, for instance other distros come with gtk 2.2.x and many people use
them :). I'm lazy to calculate the exact numbers, but I guess the
download size of xfce4 sources (or rpms) is greater than that of gtk
2.2.x packages.

I surely don't advocate to rewrite everything for gtk 2.2, definitely
not. But I also don't understand why the xfce4-mixer plugin must be
rewritten. It's one of the more useful plugins.

Well, ok. Who am I to disagree? :) Just want to add, that saying 'when I
started I used gtk 2.0 and I want to keep it compatible' would have
sounded better.
