Without the desktop, even Nautilus hardcodes "Home" in all places
nowadays (except for the desktop itself). I think a run-time dependency
on nautilus being installed (GSettings will abort if the schema is not
found) is not worth it to keep compatibility with the desktop.
(Also, nautilus itself could probably hardcode "Home" for the desktop as
well and remove the preference).

The way the window dimmer shader is applied will cause rendering errors with
the rounded corners, invisible borders or shaped textures since it doesn't deal
well with the multitexturing used by the MetaShapedTexture. Use an off-screen
buffer to flatten the texture before being applied.

The translation is taken from GTK+, so translations in the gnome-shell
domain are pointless - hide the string, so that it is not extracted
by xgettext.
Add a helper function (mostly copied from gtkcalendar.c) for getting
the first week day for the current locale, using nl_langinfo if
available and falling back to the GTK+ gettext fallback otherwise.
Use that function in the calendar, so that the LC_TIME setting is
used if possible.

Unfortunately, gjs cannot handle binary C strings directly from
gobject-introspection. Add a simple workaround method in C to help
us save random files from the web.

shell_util_get_file_display_name_if_mount() uses a nautilus setting
to use a name for $HOME which is consistent with the file manager.
But while nautilus was ported to GSettings a while ago, we are still
trying to access the old GConf setting.

shell-global had become a dumping ground for functions that didn't
have anywhere else to be. Make shell-util the dumping ground instead,
and have shell-global only have methods that involve the ShellGlobal
object.

Add a function that gets the current allocation of an actor
transformed into stage coordinates. This avoids a misfeature of
clutter_actor_get_transformed_size() where when a size request is
queued (even if it won't eventually change the size), the returned
value is the transformed size request rather than the last allocation.

Monkey-patch Date.prototype.toLocaleFormat() with a version that uses
g_date_time_format() since the Spidermonkey built-in can't handle
format strings with Unicode characters.

At times it is desireable to hide actors from being picked even
with a mode of CLUTTER_PICK_ALL.
Currently we use a pattern of
clutter_actor_hide();
clutter_stage_get_actor_at_pos();
clutter_actor_show();
in these cases, which gets hideous if the actor we want to exclude
from the pick is located in another module.
A more elegant solution is to connect a handler to the ::pick signal,
which stops further emission.
Credit for the idea goes to Owen Taylor.

Add a "gicon" property so that a GIcon can be used instead of an
icon name, while still getting icon recoloring from the theme.
Also include a compatibility wrapper in libshell until GJS has
support for interface static methods.
