We should re-use the offset_to_bytes() implementation from ClutterEntry
as it guaranteed some behaviour and sanity checks that we want to keep
inside ClutterText.
A ClutterText can be put in "password mode" by setting the
text as "invisible": every character inside the Text actor's
contents will be replaced when building the Pango layout with
a specific Unicode character.
The Unicode character is set to '*' by default, but the user
can be changed using the provided API.
ClutterText should have the same properties as ClutterLabel.
While at it, we can finally fix the disconnect between the wrap
and wrap-mode properties and its accessors, that we perpetuated
from GtkLabel.
The ClutterText:line-wrap property and ClutterText:line-wrap-mode
are mapped to the set_line_wrap(), get_line_wrap() and
set_line_wrap_mode(), get_line_wrap_mode() accessor functions
respectively. This should simplify bindings the Vala ones that
map a property into a method.
ClutterText replaces ClutterLabel, so it should expose the same
kind of API - ideally with the minimal amount of changes, so that
the porting is trivial.
The TidyText actor is meant as a replacement for both ClutterLabel
and ClutterText.
Any text-displaying and editing actor should derive from ClutterText
and implement the various visual cues to differentiate the editable
from the non-editable state. Those visual cues usually belong to
a high-level toolkit, especially if themeing is involved.
