Pausing means that we will continue to use the same output file when
the keybinding is activated again. While useful to record a single
video in chunks, it doesn't seem to be how most users understand the
keybinding. Closing the recorder will close the file and create a new
one the next time the keybinding is pressed.

Two nested scroll views were fighing with each other. The reason isn't
particularly important and has to do with some silliness involving
StAdjustment. The visible effect was that scrolling up and down when
in a summary item view would appear to be glitchy, and sometimes not
work at all.
To fix, make sure that the scroll view we don't care about is disabled
when in a summary mode.

We seem to have a lot of code that does something along the lines of:

We hide the content around displaying new search results to prevent
flickering, unfortunately, one side effect of hiding an actor is
losing key focus if it currently is on the that actor or any
child. This could happen in the case of async results showing up after
the user had moved focus to the search results.
This patch works around that issue by saving the key focus and
resetting it back after displaying the new async results.

To avoid messing up St.Buttons' internal state with a pointer grab,

before the drag.

Currently, click and drop events are handled by each WorkspaceThumbnail

Tweener uses a clutter timeline to manage all active animations
running at a given moment. The timeline is mopped up when no
animations are going any more.
Clutter requires timelines to have a finite duration, but since
animations can happen at any moment, no fixed duration can
accomodate the shell's needs.
To combat this problem, the tweener code picks a relatively
long duration: 1000 seconds. No string of animations should take
that long, so, in theory, that should be good enough.
Unfortunately, this tactic fails, in practice, when the user
suspends their machine, or VT switches. An animation can take
much longer than 1000 seconds (~16 minutes) to complete in those
cases. When the user resumes, or VT switches back the timeline
completes immediately (since it's already late) and tweener
never notices that the timeline stops ticking.
This commit changes the tweener timeline to automatically loop
back to 0 after completing, so that despite its fixed duration
property, it effectively never stops. Since the timeline loops,
its concept of elapsed time no longer increases monotonically,
so we now ignore it and track time ourselves with
GLib.get_monotonic_time().
This partially reverts commit

gnome-session moved away from using properties over DBus in 2008, which

gnome-session eventually gets ported to GDBus, then we can switch back

Bailing out of _sync() early if the application lost keyboard focus to
the shell can only be done on actual application focus changes. In
particular, doing this check on a switch to an empty workspace while

Reactive means that the actor is reachable from keyboard

In the workspace-collecting code we add a check to avoid collecting a

If the user was inactive while a notification was shown, we show the summary

We are currently taking "old" placeholders that are still animating

Some modifiers like NumLock or ScrollLock don't make sense in

The hide animation causes hover notifications for the actors inside the
boxpointer. PopupBaseMenuItems, in particular, grab the keyboard focus on
hover notifications to enable keyboard navigation on menus. This, in turn,
breaks modal dialogs' keyboard navigation since key focus is taken away from a
just created dialog when the menu is hiding.
Since input events aren't useful while menus are animating we just prevent
them from propagating.

With the recent keynav changes, the keyboard focus can now move
away from the search entry while a search is active. While we
keep the focus entry style while a search is active, we set the
cursor visibility depending on whether the entry has focus. This
doesn't seem very logical, so always request to show the cursor
when we appear focused.
Note that at least for now we are just expressing intent, as clutter
never draws the cursor for unfocused entries.
When canceling a search pressing Escape while the focus is on the
search entry we clear the entry, set its text to the hint and go back
to the previously selected tab. Make this the behavior also for when
the focus is on search results and not on the entry itself.

When restoring the previous sesssion presence, we forcefully set

The preferred way to unmaximize/untile a window is by using a drag
gesture. Extend the available area to start this gesture into

We were supposed to be updating the notification's title when the

Add an asynchronous search provider for results from a DBus service

We will allow applications to hook into shell's search by registering
a service which implements a well-known DBus interface.
"search-providers" is a reasonable directory name for applications to
drop their registration files, but it conflicts with "search_providers"
used by open search providers - rename the latter to avoid confusion.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663125
Currently, asynchronous search providers are expected to call
startAsync() in getInitialResultSet()/getSubsearchResultSet(),
which will trigger async mode until the search is canceled or
updated. Switching between synchronous and asynchronous mode like
this makes asynchronous search an implementation detail, but being
transparent to the searchDisplay means that certain optimizations
don't work as expected. Namely, updating asynchronous search results
causes flickering, and the automatic selection never focuses
asynchronous results.
So change the API to require providers being either synchronous (with
the current getInitialResultSet()/getSubsearchResultSet() methods)
or asynchronous (with asynchronous variants), and handle asynchronous
providers explicitly in searchDisplay.

renderResults() updates the results set, determines the number of
results to display, retrieves the corresponding result metas and
adds a new results actor for each meta.
Splitting the function in those parts allows to move the retrieval
of the result metas into SearchResults, which is where we ensure
flicker-free rendering and control the selection - we want to keep
both features for asynchronous result metas which we are about to
introduce.

An actor is removed from its parent after it emits the destroy signal,
so we can't just check if the notification stack has more than one
notification -- we need to check if there's a notification there
that is not the current one.
This was causing spew in the form of:
"this.notificationStack.get_children()[0]._delegate.setIconVisible
is not a function"
IconGrid items used to be square, so a single size value made
perfect sense. However, as contact search uses rectangular items,
using a single size is wrong - the allocated height ends up twice
the size of the visible height, which is particularly visible if
another provider displays results below contact results.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670148
The correct way to make an actor having the same size as another is
a ClutterBindConstraint. Connecting to 'allocation-changed' fails because
the allocation might not change even when 'width' and 'height' properties do.
This is the case of Main.uiGroup, used as parent container for zoomed
window clones.
In lightbox.js we bind also the position because in principle it could change,
even if currently only fullscreen lightboxes are used.
VPN secrets are stored by the plugins, that provide separate

secrets which is used to build a shell styled dialog.

ConsoleKit is being obsoleted by systemd. Accordingly port the CK logic
in the gnome-shell automount manager to systemd-logind APIs.
This makes use of systemd-logind's native C APIs which are much easier
to use than the D-Bus APIs in this case, and much faster too (since they
are synchronous and directly query the kernel for the information we
need). The dependency is compile time optional, and in order to be nice
to the Debian folks g-s compiled with this enabled fill automatically
fall back to CK support on systems lacking systemd.
Currently they return 'undefined' instead of something meaningful,
e.g. DND.DragMotionResult.CONTINUE. This was unnoticed because none
of the ancestors of the Activities button actors do any drag handling.
The only visible issue are JS errors generated when dragging, for example,
a window thumbnail over the button, because the cursor cannot be set.

The "extension" object is what I previously called the "helper" object.
It contains the extension importer object as well as the metadata object.
Things that were previously added on to the metadata (state, path, dir, etc.)
are now part of this new "extension" object.
With the new importer changes brought on by the extension prefs tool,
extensions are left without a way to import submodules at the global scope,
which would make them rely on techniques like:
var MySubModule;
function init(meta) {
MySubModule = meta.importer.mySubModule;
}
That is, there's now a lot more meaningless boilerplate that nobody wants
to write and nobody wants to reivew.
Let's solve this with a few clever hacks.
Allow extensions to get their current extension object with:
let extension = imports.misc.extensionUtils.getCurrentExtension();
As such, extensions can now get their own extension object before the
'init' method is called, so they can import submodules or do other things
at the module scope:
const MySubModule = extension.imports.mySubModule;
const dataPath = GLib.build_filenamev([extension.path, 'awesome-data.json']);
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668429
Add two new APIs, "launchExtensionPrefs" to let SweetTooth let the user

ExtensionUtils is a new module that has a lot of miscellaneous things related
