WebKitGtk 2.43.1 was just released and one of its changes is that it's Gtk4 by default and one must specify a build option, -DGTK4=OFF, to use it with Gtk3. I asked on the webkitgtk mailing list if there's a schedule for dropping Gtk3 support. Carlos Garcia Campos replied "No, but it will take a while I'm afraid. Most of the WebKitGTK based
applications are still GTK3, I think."

So we don't have a firm deadline yet, but this is a warning that we need to get serious about migrating.
