Instead of overriding the actor's request with the icon size, just set
the new icon size on the actors, and let the default handler take the
preferred size of children.

When restricting the switcher popup to the current workspace, we
filter out running apps with an empty window list (namely: no open
windows on the current workspace). However we may end up with an
empty window list even when not restricting items to the current
workspace when all windows of a running app are associated with a
different application via the transient_for hint.
To fix this, just filter out items with an empty window list
unconditionally.

Add an option to limit the appSwitcher to the current workspace. For users
that use workspaces for task separation this more convient then current
behviour. While having to add an option is unfortunate there is no way to make
both groups happy as workspaces usage differes between different users / types
of users.

Commit 2499f2ed80 went back to using shell_app_activate() for
selecting an app, which favors windows on the current workspace;
this is the behavior we want for instance when activating a
launcher, but it's wrong for the alt-tab list - explicitly
request the first (e.g. MRU) window in that case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700356
We chain up on _finish() to drop the grab and destroy the switcher
popup but we should activate the target window first because dropping
the grab results in the previously focused windows getting a focus in
event immediately followed by the focus out event from the target
window activation which we can easily avoid.

Currently both the app switcher and the thumbnail list divide items
first into two groups (based on whether the item is located on the
current workspace or not), and then sort each group individually
by MRU.
The resulting behavior is often confusing, e.g. when using alt-tab
a second time does not switch back to the original window when the first
invocation involved a workspace switch and the workspace contains
windows of more than one application.
Instead, make the behavior more predictable by sorting both lists
strictly by MRU.

Now that we use the new 'switch-applications' keybinding for the
application-based alt-tab popup, we can use the 'switch-windows'
keybinding for a more traditional switcher.
Based heavily on the alternate-tab extension from Giovanni Campagna.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688913
The Shell's alt-tab popup is application-based, so using the
'switch-windows' keybinding for it never really made sense.
Use the newly added 'switch-applications' keybinding instead.

This hack was part of the custom scroll view code that allowed for
proper scrolling when the actor was near the screen edges. Since
the port to St.ScrollView, it's unnecessary and downright wrong,
causing portions of actors to be clipped. Remove it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613194
The appSwitcher has been using a custom scrolling implementation because
St.ScrollView was buggy when it was written. The bugs have been fixed
so remove the custom implementation and move to St.ScrollView.

The old formula worked only when the primary monitor was positioned at the
top of the virtual desktop. When that was not the case, the available
space was miscalculated sometimes resulting in negative numbers, which in
the end produced strangely vertically stretched window thumbnails.

The last patch in the sequence. Every place that was previously
setting prototype has been ported to Lang.Class, to make code more
concise and allow for better toString().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664436
All classes that have at least one other derived class (and thus
benefit from the framework) have been now ported. These includes
NMDevice, SearchProvider, AltTab.SwitcherList, and some other
stuff around.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664436
Allow push_modal to optionally only work with a keyboard only grab and
use that in altTab as a fallback to allow switching windows while a pointer grab
is in effect (like during DND operations).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660457
Because we were sorting the Alt+Tab list by user_time rather than
stacking order / MRU, it was possible for the currently-focused window
to sometimes not be the first app in the list. Fix this by using
meta_display_get_tab_list() to get the proper MRU ordering of windows
on the current workspace, and then convert that to an ordered list of
apps.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645026
js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent
across all files.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660358
While we allow for arbitrary modifiers in keybindings, both the
alt-tab and ctrl-alt-tab popups close when ALT is not present in
the modifier mask, resulting in ALT being de-facto hardcoded.
Instead, pass the actual modifier mask when invoking the popups.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645200
Force an allocation at thumbnails creation so we can figure out whether we
need to scroll when selecting.
We also need to show() the whole AltTabPopup before calling _select() so that,
when computing the scrolling offset, the widgets already have their styles
loaded. Otherwise we will miss the switcher list item container's spacing.

This patch fixes the "apps vanish from alt-TAB bug".
If a "package system" rips away and possibly replaces .desktop files
at some random time, we have historically used inotify to detect this
and reread state (in a racy way, but...). In GNOME 2, this was
generally not too problematic because the menu widget was totally
separate from the list of windows - and the data they operate on was
disjoint as well.
In GNOME 3 we unify these, and this creates architectural problems
because the windows are tied to the app.
What this patch tries to do is, when rereading the application state,
if we have a running application, we keep that app around instead of
making a new instance. This ensures we preserve any state such as the
set of open windows.
This requires moving the running state into ShellAppSystem. Adjust
callers as necessary, and while we're at it drop the unused "contexts"
stuff.
This is just a somewhat quick band-aid; a REAL fix would require us
having low-level control over application installation. As long as
we're on top of random broken tar+wget wrappers, it will be gross.
A slight future improvement to this patch would add an explicit
"merge" between the old and new data. I think probably we always keep
around the ShellApp corresponding to a given ID, but replace its
GMenuTreeEntry.

Use a longer fade-in time, but with an inout transition, so that the
dialog starts fading in very slowly and then picks up speed after
150ms or so. That way if the user releases Alt+Tab right away, they'll
never actually see the dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652346
Remove ShellGlobal's monitor-related methods, and have
Main.layoutManager provide that information instead. Move
Main._relayout() to LayoutManager, and have other objects connect to
the layout manager's 'monitors-changed' signal to know when the screen
geometry has changed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636963
AltTabPopup was calling global.stage.get_actor_at_pos() "to force a
stage relayout", but that function does not actually have that effect.
It was also occasionally causing Clutter warnings (possibly due to a
clutter pick-buffer-caching bug?). So just remove the call.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650317
The initial selection of the Alt+Tab dialog was happening before the
dialog was shown and allocated, and so the "do we need to scroll"
check used bogus coordinates. Fix by showing the dialog (and forcing
an allocation) first.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647807
Alt+Tab's special case of "switch to the most-recently-used window even if
it's in the same app" is actually an hindrance for users to get a firm mental
model of Alt+Tab. Now that we have Alt+Above_Tab the special case is no longer
needed.
