Following the idea expressed in bug 590563 by mccann ("Minimized or
hidden applications should appear at the end of the list"), we should
also put applications that have no visible window in the active
workspace at the end of the alt-tab window list, after apps which have
minimized windows in the active workspace.
Fix panel, app switcher, and looking glass to limit themselves to the
primary monitor, and run dialog to limit itself to the monitor
containing the currently-focused window.
The overview is also limited to the primary monitor now (with the
other monitors being blacked out), although the workspaces within the
overview are shaped like the full "screen" (the bounding box of all
monitors). To be fixed later.

Unlike icons in the application well, do not show the glow used to
indicate running apps. It is somewhat redundant here. These are all
running apps and it is fairly clear from the window list if there are
multiple instances available, according to mccann.

The default AppIcon gray border color isn't very visible against a
dark gray background, but a white border looks too bold in the Well. So
allow the caller to override the AppIcon border color, so that the Well
can use gray-on-black and the AppSwitcher can use white-on-gray. (And
then revert the AppSwitcher back to the translucent gray background.)

The "lightbox" effect had support for highlighting a particular
rectangular region on the taskbar when Alt-Tabbing to a minimized
window. Since we no longer use the taskbar, this code is just cruft
now.

We now have functionality in Mutter to grab the keyboard on behalf
of a plugin. This avoids interactions with the key handling code
in Mutter that could leave the user with an inconsistent state
and no way to get out of it.
src/shell-global.[ch]: Change shell_global_grab_keyboard() and
shell_global_grab_keyboard() to shell_global_begin_modal()
shell_global_end_modal() and call mutter_plugin_begin_modal()
mutter_plugin_end_modal() rather than directly grabbing the
keyboard.
main.js: Call global.begin_modal/end_modal from Main.startModal()
and Main.endModal()
altTab.js; Remove call to Main.startModal() - we're letting Mutter
handle modality for Alt-Tab.
main.js lookingGlass.js overview.js runDialog.js: Rename
Main.startModal() to Main.beginModal() for consistency with
naming in mutter and ShellGlobal.

Change the "overlay" actor to be a group of 4 actors that we can
rearrange so as to have a hole in the middle (to cover up the whole
screen except for the highlighted icon). For non-iconified windows, we
still highlight them the old way (raising them above the overlay),
because we don't want square highlights around shaped windows.
Make the indicator in the pop-up move faster.
Quickly fade in the "overlay" window when starting, rather than
showing it abruptly. Destroy it right away rather than just hiding it
when the AltTabHandler is destroyed.
Fix the font size to be the same as the "Activities" button.
Fix a warning when tabbing past an iconified window.
This is a fairly simple implementation, not all that different from
plain metacity's. Further improvements could be made to
js/ui/altTab.js in the future.
