OK, I think telegram-desktop will actually be fine with no changes. When webkit2gtk-5.0 disappears, it should just fall back to using the stable GTK 3 version instead of the unstable GTK 4 version, which is probably a good idea for now. If you really want to use the GTK 4 API before it's stable, then LoadLibrary(webkit2gtk, "libwebkit2gtk-5.0.so.0" should be replaced with "libwebkitgtk-6.0.so.0" and incremented for each soname bump. There will probably be 2-3 soname bumps during the next 3 months or so. Then, if all goes well, we'll freeze the API and it will be stable indefinitely, like webkit2gtk-4.0 and webkit2gtk-4.1 are currently. If I fail to stabilize the API, then it could take until F39, but the goal is F38.

I also looked closer at the code that's loading deprecated JSC functions that will be removed, and it looks like it's designed to load the deprecated functions only if the newer alternatives are not available at all, so I think that should be fine too.
