Upstream just posted
this
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/repo-discuss/yON4C-hIk-o for PolyGerrit plans
in 2.16 / 3.0.
So it's confirmed that the planned removal of GWTUI will be in 3.0.

What do you mean by "URLs are hard to get right due to arcane escaping rules. I have
been completely unable to make search shortcuts that work in both the old and new
UI."? Upstream have fixed some urls that were breaking when switching to the old ui.
These fixes are on the master branch.

Thanks for your work on Gerrit, Paladox!
The Polygerrit upgrade looks great; the thread view is especially amazing. (If you are not
familiar with it, check this patch [1] and click "Comment Threads" near the
bottom of the screen.) I mostly have behavior issues (on
gerrit.wikimedia.org; I
haven't tested whether they affect 2.16):* URLs are hard to get right due to arcane
escaping rules. I have been completely unable to make search shortcuts that work in both
the old and new UI.* Almost impossible to find clone URLs. (T206049, but also in the old
UI I could click through from the patch to the to the repo admin screen and that's
also impossible to find now. I see it's slightly easier in 2.16 but still annoying.)*
For me the most unintuitive part is the relation chain, especially when it is nonlinear. A

On the plus side,* Avatars are really nice and make the whole experience more human. (They
are not enabled on the Wikimedia Gerrit yet, right?)* At some point search autocomplete
switched from prefix-autocompletion to substring-autocompletion (e.g. for project names).
That sounds like a small thing but it really made life a lot more convenient.
