 I advocate this approach (known as wx3-on-2).

 I don't think it's a good idea. For me the goal is to allow multiple
backends for the same wxTNG API and so it doesn't make much sense to
include wx2 as part of wx3.

 How is it different from 1? Of course wx2 will continue to evolve (even if
slowly), i.e. it will be modified...

 I think it's the contrary... We need to decide what do we want and then
organize the project accordingly.
