That's certainly doable but note that once you do it you essentially create
a fork, and then maintaining both versions in parallel will be hard if not
impossible.
But as GTK 2 is getting very old though still maintained upstream, we should
probably do something here. The first and easy step would be to switch GTK
3 to default at build time.
I wonder how many Pan users still require GTK 2 these days?
