The setting to globally disable location settings altogether isn't
handled by the geoclue service itself, but by the authorization
agent. This means that:
- it doesn't apply to system components
(which gnome-shell is now considered[0])
- it doesn't apply once the geoclue connection
has been authorized
However users can reasonably expect that we won't use location services
after they disabled them, so handle the setting explicitly.

We currently use automatic location for weather forecasts if the
corresponding Weather setting is set, however we should take other
factors into account as well:
- whether location services are enabled at all
- whether Weather has been authorized to use them
In preparation of these changes, track the setting's value in a
separate property and make _useAutoLocation a getter, so we can
extend it with additional conditions easily.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=780252
Setting GWeatherInfo:location to null helpfully doesn't mean
"no location", but "NYC". This obviously isn't what we want
to show users, so track the location validity separately and
consider it when updating the label shown to users.

When using the 'disable-lock-screen' setting to lock down the screen
lock, the expectation is that users cannot lock the screen. However
as it turns out, all the setting currently does is hiding the lock
button in the system menu and making the lock settings in the privacy
panel inactive. That means that if the 'lock-screen-enabled' setting
isn't disabled and locked down as well, we will just continue to
lock the screen on inactivity - not to mention the keyboard shortcut
that isn't subject to that setting anyway.
Instead of expecting administrators to hunt down every possible way
of locking the screen and disabling it individually, we can easily
handle all cases by refusing to lock the screen when disabled by the
lockdown settings.

Dragging and dropping app icons is expected to work anywhere over a
workspace, however overlaid elements are added to a separate hierarchy
and can thus block valid drop targets. This wasn't much of an issue
while we had just the window title, but since the addition of the
focus border, drops on window previews stopped working entirely.
Fix this by hiding all non-reactive overlay elements from picks.

We rely on the service to detect whether a fingerprint reader is
present. It is fine to not support fingerprint authentication
when the service is missing, but currently we don't handle this
case at all and end up with a non-functional login screen.

Currently when the wifi selection dialog is open when the screen lock is
activated, the dialog remains visible above the shield. This is clearly
broken, so close the dialog automatically on session mode changes if the
mode doesn't allow settings (as changing the access point is arguably a
user setting).

The critical hint is meant to be used for notifications that must not
be missed - running out of battery being the prime example - so it
makes sense to ignore the policy in that case and make sure to always
show them to the user. This is consistent with blocking normal
notifications while showing a fullscreen window, but letting critical
ones through.

Whenever there's more than one pad in the same group (eg. Wacom ExpressKey
Remotes), show a popdown menu to allow configuring those extra pads.
Devices are hot-pluggable, so the popdown menu will update its state
whenever pads are added/removed.
Also, allow to quickly change between pads by switching to its OSD by
just interacting with them. Always given they are in the same group.

Telepathy's role has been diminishing continuously over the last
couple of years, so while chat integration is a nice feature for
those who use it, it is hard to justify keeping it as a hard
dependency. To address this, split out the component from the
client so we can handle missing typelibs gracefully by not
providing any chat integration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779878
If GeoClue is not responding for some reason, the callback of
Geoclue.Simple.new would not get called, meaning that _gclueFailed
remains false. This is preventing the fallback to the most recently
used location in gnome-weather, because it requires _gclueFailed to be
true (or auto-location to be disabled). So neither code path sets a
location and the libgweather default (New York City) is being used
instead.

For most notifications, banners are suppressed while the monitor
that is used to display banners is in fullscreen. With the old
message tray at the bottom, this used to be the bottom-most monitor,
but nowadays it's always the primary one, so update the corresponding
code to use the correct monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779819
The telepathy integration was written at a time where gjs didn't
allow to inherit from GObject classes, which is why we needed a
C helper class. This hasn't been the case for a while now, so cut
out the middle man and implement Tp.BaseClient directly.

Rename the signals which have been used to handle XDnd events to more inclusive
ones. So that these signals can be used to handle the DnD events in Wayland.

Commit c6f22826cf added a call to update() to refresh the notification
time for sent and received messages. However as it omits the bannerMarkup
parameter, escaped text like ''' now makes it through verbatim.
Rather than adding the parameter, we can just refresh the timestamp in
the existing update() call to fix the issue - it means the notification
timestamp is only refreshed for received messages, but that reflects
the text shown in the notification, which isn't updated for sent
messages either.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779435
Media notifications currently always show the forward and backward
buttons as clickable, regardless of whether the corresponding action
is available or not. Media players usually address this by rendering
controls insensitive in this case, so do the same here.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773884
Without the boxy background, event messages look a bit plain and
unaligned with other messages. Adding an icon addresses this,
however as repeating the same icon over and over again in case of
many events would be rather noisy, only show it for the top event
as in the mockups.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
Update the notification style according to the latest mockups:
- make notification icons smaller and prefer symbolic variants
- remove background box when not hovered/focused
- increase spacing between elements
- use normal text sizes
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
For notifications in the message list, it is usually less relevant
when exactly it occurred, but how long ago. So rather than showing
the exact time and expecting the user to figuring out the timespan
themselves, change the format to something human readable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
Currently the secondary actor (if set) and the close button are
exclusive, that is the latter replaces the former on hover. As
the swapping feels rather busy and there's no real reason both
cannot be shown at the same time, keep the secondary actor always
visible.
A welcome side effect is that it no longer needs to be placed at
the end, so we can move the notification timestamp right next to
the corresponding title.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
The section titles usually don't provide a lot of value - messages
themselves are usually pretty unambiguous about their type, and
having a hidden shortcut to some settings panel or application isn't
essential either - except when showing the selected date when browsing
other days, as it adds context to the listed events. Based on that,
remove the section title as a general MessageListSection feature and
move it into the EventsSection, where we only show it when it is useful.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
We will eventually remove section titles from the message list to
reduce visual noise and give the actual information provided by
the messages more space. So in order to not lose the ability to
mass-dismiss messages, the latest mockups spot a "Clear All" button
at the bottom - implement that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775763
The latest mockups contain a button to clear all sections at once.
As some elements cannot be cleared, we need to provide that information
to avoid offering an action that has no effect.

Weather conditions - at least as far as online services are
concerned - don't usually change in a couple of minutes.
So when updating shortly after a previous update, assume
the current conditions are still valid and trigger an
update without showing a loading indication. This should
help a bit with not getting stuck permanently in loading
state when on a shitty network.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754031
Similar to the Clocks integration we've had in the date+time drop-down for
a while, the designs have called for a similar section that integrates
GNOME weather as well. Use the WeatherClient added in the previous commit
to implement that section and add it to the popover.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754031
In preparation of integrating GNOME Weather, add a helper class that
retrieves weather information according to Weather's configuration
if the application is installed.

In order to avoid distracting popup size changes while browsing
other dates, we freeze the size to the last size request. However
in case of more complex size negotiations - wrapping or ellipsizing
labels, scrollable elements etc. - there's a chance of stray calls
to get_preferred_width/height() that are not used for the actual
allocation. If such a call happens to be the last size request
before the layout is frozen, the saved size will be wrong. To fix
this, save the allocated size rather than the requested one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754031
We want the width of the calendar column to be determined by the
calendar, other elements should adjust their allocation accordingly.
However neither ellipsization nor wrapping will kick in unless the
parent's width is restricted, so use a small custom layout manager
that enforces the desired behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754031
As the telepathy integration picks up existing channels on startup,
ChatNotifications are another case where the real time the message
was received may be before the time it is picked up by the shell.
While this is less of an annoyance than restored GNotifications, as
it generally only affects restarts from the run dialog, it's an
easy fix now ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775799
GNotifications are persistent until dismissed or withdrawn, including
across restarts. As we show the time a notification was received in the
calendar, we need to include that information when serializing the
notification in order to be correct.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775799
Since the last notification redesign, we've been showing the time a
notification was received in the calendar drop-down. However as the
time is in fact added by the NotificationSection, it is actually the
time a notification was added to the list. Usually that difference is
not significant, except when previously received notifications are
restored on startup.
In order to be able to address those cases, we need a time that is
associated with the notification itself, so add a datetime property
that defaults to the current time, but may be set from an optional
parameter as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775799
When gnome-clocks is installed, there is currently a race between the
GSettings schema being added to the database and the world clocks
session trying to use it. The prize if we win that race is an abort
in GIO, so use the newly added AppSettingsMonitor skip the race
altogether.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766410
When integrating with optional components like Clocks, it is not safe
to access their GSettings right after the application became visible
to the AppSystem:
Installation is usually not atomic, so the .desktop file may appear
before the settings schema, in which case Gio will abort due to an
"invalid" schema ID.
To address this, add a small helper class that wraps the settings
access in a safe way.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766410
The display configuration now exposes a setting to automatically
shift the display color at nighttime. As there are cases where
disabling the filtering temporarily is useful, it makes sense to
expose the feature in the system menu for quick access.

Update according to the latest mockups:
- don't use a border around the list as specified
by the latest HIG version
- use more generous spacing between controls
- allow extension descriptions to take up two lines
- drop GNOME branding from the window title
- make the app name consistent with the window title
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=778672
While the extension prefs tool is not meant as the primary way for
users to configure extensions - that will be Tweak Tool - it still
doesn't hurt to expose the extension kill switch to easily turn
extensions back on after a session crash.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=778664
When gnome-shell fails to start on login, gnome-session tries to
re-launch it again with all extensions disabled. This is currently
implemented by clearing the list of enabled extensions, which means
the user needs to re-enable their extensions manually again.
To make this process less annoying, add a single 'kill-switch' setting
gnome-session can use without interfering with the user setting.
