There's a concern from my POV on FLTK2's *short*-term future w.r.t. its API/ABI
stability, because it's released thru snapshots only but that's something we
don't care much, OpenSSL used to break ABI every its second release. Rapidly
changing library might be a problem for Fedora in case we have a lot of
FLTK2-dependent apps, which we don't have; Dillo2 should be the first and most
demanded one. 

>From my experience with Dillo2, FLTK2 behaves quite nice, I wouldn't say it's
unstable w.r.t core library (on API/ABI I have elaborated already) & buggy --
it's supported upstream (read its "FLTK 2.0.x Weekly Snapshot" reports).
