becomes a small stub linked to this library [Dan]

of polluting the toplevel namespace [Dan]
* Remove various unused complications: [Dan]
- Ability to set the set of plugins via GConf
- Plugin 'params'
- meta_restart() and "mutter-message restart"
* Don't exit when we are requested to exit via XSMP, assume we'll be
killed along with the X server; this avoids visual artifacts from
unmanaging windows when logging out [Colin]

Contributors:

Ray Strode, Owen Taylor, Colin Walters
Translations:
Matej Urbančič [sl], Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy [vi]
Bugs fixed:

636491 valgrind: meta_window_shape_new (meta-window-shape.c:79)
637802 ui: Adapt to GDK API changes
2.91.3
======
* Better shadows: [Owen]
- Shadows can be different for different window types and focus states
- Shadows are larger by default, especially for the currently active
window
- Shadows for attached modal dialogs and menus are drawn not to
overlap the attachment point.
- Shadows follow the shape of shaped windows
* Optimization: [Owen]
- Avoid repainting in situations when windows are potentially restacked
but aren't actually restacked.
- Pay attention to partial stage repaints in obscured window calculations
- Better optimization of painting obscured shadows; turn off shadows
for maximized windows.
- Move background repainting into Mutter; doing it here rather than
in plugins allows not painting obscured parts of the background.
* A new frame type 'attached' is added for attached modal dialogs
and can be referenced in theme files with a theme version of 3.2.
* Fix updating key bindings when the keyboard layout changes

* Big code cleanup: when talking about multiple monitors, call them
"monitors", not "xineramas". [Dan]
* Accessors added or made public:
meta_screen_get_n_monitors(), meta_screen_get_monitor_geometry()
meta_window_get_user_time() and MetaWindow:user-time property.
[Colin, Dan]

Metacity keybindings when Mutter is running. [Owen]

2.27.3
======
* Key handling improvements:
- enforce that every key is handled no more than once.
- mutter_plugin_begin_modal() and mutter_plugin_begin_modal() allow
putting a plugin into a "modal" state where it has exclusive access
to key and pointer events.
- Add "tab_popup_select", "tab_pop_cancel" pseudo-keypress-handlers
that plugins can use to get notification when Alt-Tab ends
