* #CallyClone implements the required ATK interfaces of #ClutterClone
*
* In particular it sets a proper role for the clone, as just a image,
* as it is the sanest and simplest approach.

/* Design rationale for CallyClone:
*
* In the old times, it was just ClutterCloneTexture. So, from a a11y POV
* CallyCloneTexture was just another image, like ClutterTexture, and if
* it was a clone was irrevelant. So on cally-0.8, CallyCloneTexture
* expose a object with role ATK_ROLE_IMAGE. But now, ClutterClone is more
* general. You can clone any object, including groups, and made things
* like have one text entry, and a clone with different properties in the
* same window, updated both at once.
*
* The question is if the idea is have a ClutterClone as a "first-class"
* citizen inside the stage hierarchy (full clone), or it is just supposed
* to be a mirror image of the original object.
*
* In the case of the a11y POV this would mean that if the text changes on
* the source, the clone should emit as well the text-changing signals.
*
* As ClutterClone smartly just paint the same object with different
* parameters, this would mean that it should be the cally object the one
* that should replicate the source clutter hierarchy to do that,
* something that just sound crazy.
*
* Taking into account that:
*
* - ClutterClone doesn't re-emit mirrored signals from the source
* I think that likely the answer would be "yes, it is just a
* mirrored image, not a real full clone".
*
* - You can't interact directly with the clone (ie: focus, and so on).
* Its basic usage (right now) is clone textures.
*
* Any other solution could be overwhelming.
*
2010-07-05 10:10:42 -04:00
* I think that the final solution would be that ClutterClone from the
* a11y POV should still be managed as a image (with the proper properties,
* position, size, etc.).
