I'm not going to guarantee that all Gotham plugins will work, but I think most should.
Yes things will break and are broken, we already know that some skins have problems with the audio/video OSD setting pages, and skin.widgets is choking on string splits() (due to PR4677) but most other things seem OK given my very limited testing. That could all change with the next build of course, who really knows...
One thing to note is that the music db version has been bumped in Helix to v48, so if you have a music library and subsequently revert back to Gotham (v46) you will find that any music changes will have been "lost". Should you then upgrade to Helix again in future I would recommend dropping the v48 music db prior to upgrading so that your Gotham music db can be upgraded using the latest Helix database upgrade code. Hope this makes sense...
