Description: 

Hi,
I'm asking for a review of the webkitgtk4 package rename to webkit2gtk3.

The reason behind is that the number on the end is not tight to the GTK+
version, but to the API version. The problem is that it brings some confusion
among our users (that we saw during the webkitgtk and webkitgtk3 deprecations)
- please see
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ERLSWM4UBLEXMXKXZUEMS2P6HEBGOAQV/
. The are currently no plans for GTK+ 4 based WebKitGTK+, but we should be
ready for it.

We want to rename the package only in rawhide (F28+). F26 and F27 will still
have webkitgtk4.
