When in the overview, if you move the mouse cursor over one of the
application launchers in the dash, all the unrelated windows are dimmed
both both in the window view and in the workspace view.
It helps to easily understand whether or not there are already opened
windows for this application, and where they are. It can also help in
differentiating the windows in the overview (sometimes the thumbnails
aren't precise enough to easily know which thumbnail belongs to which
application).

This has also the benefit of getting the application even if it can not
be retrieved through AppSystem, which can happen if the runtime WMClass
does not match the one of the desktop file.
This especially looked wrong with the following commits related to the
bug.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657315
We simply hide the label when the popup is opened instead of relying
on the popup state when the hover state change.
To do this we replace the flag isMenuUp by a 'menu-state-changed' signal
on the AppWellIcon. This simplifies the dash label visibility handling
code that need additional changes for the bug.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657315
After some changes, the tooltip label at the dash is not available
until it is visually shown. As this is not anymore a reliable
source of accessible name, we just set the accessible name
with the string used on that label.

Currently the label for the show-apps button is only updated during
drag operations, so after an item is successfully dropped on the
button, the label will still read "Remove from Favorites".
Fix this by resetting the label on drag-end.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=684627
Having the tooltip change when it's visible looks strange and glitchy.
This also makes sure that "Remove from Favorites" doesn't change, even
when the user removes their mouse cursor from it.

When Florian landed the new dash container to show the all apps button
always, he got the math wrong -- he forgot to add padding around the
container, and used the height of the box to calculate a y2 position,
rather than the y2 position of the box.

When the dash contains more icons than fit at the minimum icon size,
icons are cut off at the end. This means that the show-apps button
will be the first to disappear, which is problematic given it's the
sole access point for other applications (for those that refuse to
use search at least).
Fix by using a dedicated widget for the dash actor, so that in case
of underallocation only icons above the show-apps button end up being
cut off.

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
In the new designs, we no longer need favRemoveTarget. As it shares a lot
of its functionality with the new showAppsIcon, we refactor and restyle it
accordingly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
We’ll be repurposing the favRemoveTarget, which calls for it the be
permanently visibe. The favRemoveTarget used to be added to the dash when
needed and removed again when it wasn’t. This made that it always appeared
at the bottom of the dash. Now that we always show it, we also need to
explicitly define it to be at the bottom of the dash.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
We are currently taking "old" placeholders that are still animating
out into account to calculate the new placeholder position - this
causes an annoying bug, where dragging a dash item downwards triggers
quick continous position changes of the placeholder.
Just ignoring old placeholders fixes the issue.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651842
Running apps are always kept in the dash, so removing them from
favorites just moves them to the end of the favorites list. This
behavior is not immediately obvious, so only show the remove target
when dragging a favorites application that is not currently running.

We consider spacing and padding in _adjustIconSize, but as we use
the theme node from an actor which is not exposed to the CSS, we
miss the "real" values - correct this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662213
DashItem labels have initial delay before showing up, but once the
first label in the dash is visible (meaning the user is very likely
exploring things) and the pointer is moved along the dash, the label
will follow immediately.

Instead of using an St.Tooltip to show the app's name under the icon,
manually position a new St.Label ourselves. Make sure to keep the label
hidden when right-clicking so it doesn't get in the way of the popup menu.
Only one tooltip/label will be displayed at a time.

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.

In case _adjustIconSize() is called while the the dash icons are
animating, some extra work is required to yield the expected result.
Skip those extra steps when the icons are not actually animating.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649248
The current code uses the dash's height and current icon size to
calculate the new icon size. However, the height does not correctly
relate to the icon size while the icons are animating, in which
case the resulting icon size may be wrong.
Rework the function to be independent from the actual icon sizes,
so that a correct size is calculated even when called during an
animation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649248
Rather than relying on the caller to hide the remove target and
removed items before calling _adjustIconSize(), move that logic
into _adjustIconSize() itself.

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.

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.
