This is a new, regular keybinding for going to the overview.
The default binding is Super-S, which goes well with Super-A
for going to the application grid.
This is separate from the existing panel-main-menu keybinding,
so that we can keep Alt-F1 opening the main menu in classic mode.

We recently started to trim leading and trailing whitespace from
the search string, and not to trigger a search when the resulting
string was empty. However we still allow whitespace to trigger
type-ahead-find, so that the key focus is moved briefly to the
search entry and back to the stage, resulting in a disruptive
flickering of the entry.
Fix this by excluding whitespace from triggering type-ahead-find.

With categories removed, the separation between AllAppDisplay and
ViewByCategories no longer makes sense. Also use this opportunity
to rename the outdated AllAppDisplay to AppDisplay; it will
eventually be used to manage different views.

If the animation time is not the same for these two, the translation
will be adjusted to the allocation during the tween, resulting in a jump
in the animation.

When we reset the state of the checked button due to the overview
showing and hiding, block the normal checked callback and immediately
switch to the workspaces page, so that windows seamlessly fade in.

Set the checked property explicitly. This is because
resetShowAppsButton() will only be used to flip the button state
blocking the page change in a future commit.

This is nothing but a middle man, as the view selector already owns
the search system. We want to start being a bit more tricky with what
we do with the search system so that we ignore whitespace, so let's
cut the middle-man out now.

In the overview, when there is no text in the search entry, this._searchActive
will be set to false. Moving the Clutter.Return code block ensures that
pressing enter in the search field after deleting the characters of a search
will no longer launch the #1 application for the previous search.

'active' isn't terribly clear about just what is active; also, make it
private, remove an useless extra object state we were saving, and
refactor some messy code.
Based on a patch by Tanner Doshier.

Since commit 0c807bddaf, the run dialog no longer handles Escape
key presses itself but uses the action key mechanism of modal dialogs.
As the latter uses key-release events, our own handling of the Escape
key runs on key-press.
Fix this by bailing out early if anything has pushed a modal in addition
to the overview (like system modals, looking glass, ...).

The top panel and message tray icons were by default a gnome foot and
are replaced by better ones. The applications icon is now using the
symbolic apps icon of the dash, and the windows icon is also improved.

This is a workaround for power users for the "Show Apps" button
placement being too inconvenient to press at the bottom of the
dash favorites list.
Unity also uses Super+A to show the Apps lens.

Remove the PlacesManager, its search provider and all associated code.
Places search is now provided by nautilus using the external search
provider API.

Since we now use the capture phase to feed events into the input
method, we must set the capture flag for the event that starts
searches so that IMs can get at it.

With the latest changes to the overview, the application view is now
clearly on a different level compared to the window picker. For that
reason it now makes sense to close it on Escape rather than hiding
the overview directly, as we do for search.

Rather than relying on implementation details of StWidget's keyboard
navigation to "hide" the focusTrap from arrow key navigation, implement
the desired behavior explicitly in a custom widget.

Tabs used to provide an abstraction for a page and the control used to
activate it. As the latter has now been replaced with external controls
handled directly in the viewSelector, the abstraction itself doesn't make
much sense anymore. In preparation of replacing it, move the search
handling provided by the SearchTab directly in the viewSelector.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
We pass the dash’s showApps button to the viewSelector, and we connect it
to the showing and hiding of the appsView. This is necessary because there
are different mechanisms for switching the views, and it has to stay in
sync with the button’s state.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
The entry should be positioned in the center of the overview. This makes
that its position can’t be set in the viewSelector without making things
overly complicated. Therefore we move the entry to the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
Design calls for views being accessible by other means than the current tab
system, so we have no longer a need for the public viewTab API. Move the
initialization of tabs to the viewSelector and make
viewSelector.addViewTab() private.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
The original design for the overview had buttons for searching for
Wikipedia and Google, but in practice this is a bad idea. The buttons
are the default activations, meaning that using the overview as a
fluent motion of launching something - "firefxo<Enter>", will launch
Google/Wikipedia.

We currently require users to tab away from the search entry before
search results can be navigated using arrow keys. For convenience,
support using arrow keys directly from the entry.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663901
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.
