Removing atkcomponent, focus_tracker, etc. Emitting focus state change
from the stage. Now things are more simple, and stop to use some
of the soon-to-be-deprecated signals on ATK.
Cally is doing a bunch of list traversals through the list returned by
ClutterContainer.get_children(); this means a traversal already, plus
a bunch of allocations. We can do better than that, now that we have
a proper graph iteration API inside ClutterActor.
Using the default stage as a fallback is wrong in all circumstances.
In this specific case, if an actor is not associated to a stage then it
cannot possibly be the key focus.
Cally was initially created with Clutter 0.6 in mind. To check
recursively the visibility of a actor a custom method was added.
Since 0.8.4 clutter_actor_get_pain_visibility provides
the same functionality.
Also removed a dummy method. Lets add methods that provide a real
functionality.
The G_CONST_RETURN define in GLib is, and has always been, a bit fuzzy.
We always used it to conform to the platform, at least for public-facing
API.
At first I assumed it has something to do with brain-damaged compilers
or with weird platforms where const was not really supported; sadly,
it's something much, much worse: it's a define that can be toggled at
compile-time to remove const from the signature of public API. This is a
truly terrifying feature that I assume was added in the past century,
and whose inception clearly had something to do with massive doses of
absynthe and opium — because any other explanation would make the
existence of such a feature even worse than assuming drugs had anything
to do with it.
Anyway, and pleasing the gods, this dubious feature is being
removed/deprecated in GLib; see bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644611
Before deprecation, though, we should just remove its usage from the
whole API. We should especially remove its usage from Cally's internals,
since there it never made sense in the first place.
Adding an action should allow passing a user data pointer, and have a
notification action that gets called when removing the action. This
allows introspection and language bindings to attach custom data to the
action - for instance, the real callable object that should be invoked.

Make Cally follow the single-include header file policy of Clutter and
Cogl; this means making cally.h the single include header, and requires
a new cally-main.h file for the functions defined by cally.h.
Also:
• clean up the licensing notice and remove the FSF address;
• document the object structures (instance and class);
• G_GNUC_CONST-ify the get_type() functions;
• reduce the padding for CallyActor sub-classes;
• reduce the amount of headers included.
The Clutter Accessibility Library is an implementation of the ATK,
the Accessibility Toolkit, which exposes Clutter actors to accessibility
tools. This allows not only writing accessible user interfaces, but also
allows testing and verification frameworks based on A11Y technologies to
inspect and test a Clutter scene graph.
