Granted, its not a big application and some of the underlining changes might be handled by PyGI, but I at least in my experience, Gtk-3 is far from being useless.
BTW, my actual desktops either run XFCE 4.10 or KDE 4.10.

But in the long term, using an old toolkit with zero support and possible security vulnerabilities that no-one will ever fix is a very bad idea.

If people want to 'waste' time on fragmentation then let them be. If it works really well, the project will become important. If it's not important to everyone else but you, you are free to maintain it.
