This is also my preference, although not a particularly strong one.

I agree.  The exception would perhaps be that I don't see any reason to spend a lot of time keeping the V2 code particularly consistent with wherever the V3 code ends up.  That's obviously a no-no for the public APIs in any case (e.g., XmlSecTool can't become XMLSecTool until a major version because "some people" (e.g., me) call that class directly.
