Good question. I particularly want to know if Potenza shifters are compatible with Centaur (new 11-speed) rear derailleurs.
I have both Potenza and (the 11-speed) Centaur shifters and they are both Powershift. And as close as I can measure, the cable pull is the same.

This is an interesting question. From my experience, as long as the 'number of speeds' is the same on both the rear derailleur and shifters, then they will work fine.
I ran Chorus 10 speed shifters with a Record Titanium 10 speed rear mech, and they worked fine. These were however the same 'era' of Campagnolo. When the Chorus levers packed up, I put some modern post-2015 Veloce 10 speed levers on and they also worked fine with the old Record Titanium 10 speed rear mech.
So I would say yes they will work. Generally Campagnolo equipment is interchangeable as long as the speed is the same. Shimano is a lot more complicated.
