Because headers might be different in the future. The existing API in webkit1 will be kept in webkit2 to ensure the compatibility, but we might want to add new methods to the API that don't make sense in webkit1. For example, when we add a wrapper for WKContext, we could add webkit_web_view_new_with_context() to the webkit2 API.
