The only downside is that while GF v3 is on the fast track to be an early adopter and implementer of Servlet 3, that doesn't mean that others are sure to follow For example, I have no idea when Tomcat or Jetty might offer a compatible v3 container, it may well be very soon, I don't follow either project. Most likely the other commercial vendors will be behind the curve as to actual compliance as well.
