GTK+ 2.20 will be out when Xfce 4.6 is released, so that's not a
problem. Also GTK+ 2.8 to 2.10 is less of an issue than the 2.6 to 2.8
move, which broke several setups. GTK+ 2.10 allows to drop some stuff
(i.e. the tray icon stuff) and maybe even integrate with the GtkPrint
framework. The 2.10 file chooser API was changed and I don't plan to
support two APIs for the xfce file chooser integration (don't hold your
breath tho).
