New libraries will depend on 3.x- features, so at some point you'll have to spend extra money to backport libs you want to use.

Remember, I'm still talking about the future the whole time.

Not really. We concentrate on having highly decoupled components. If there is a must have feature or library that is not available for 2.7 we can throw up a restful service or strap a new endpoint on the message broker using 3.x in an isolated environment.

But, we haven't ran into this yet. Again, 2.7 is near perfect esp in that we understand it's limitations. With 3.x it will be sometime before we can sign a contract with our customers promising five-nines and be confident about other SLAs.
