src/core does some things depending on window->mapped, but since we now
leave the window mapped for hidden windows we might get some wrong
descisions.
Also instead of calling meta_window_show when in meta_window_hide for
the case that the window isn't currently mapped, we now simply
XMapWindow.
It's more awkward and error prone, considering plugin ininteractions, to simply
show/hide the actors of hidden windows, and it seems to be more reliable to
reparent them to a hidden group instead.
We can't easily use a metacity layer to hide windows as that means we
loose our original stacking position. (Metacity's stack positions are
only valid within a single layer) We now have a "guard window" per
screen that is a fullscreen override redirect that is lowered to the
bottom of the stack. Hidden windows now remain in their original layer
so the stacking position remains valid, but all hidden windows get
XRestacked under the guard window.
A new compositor hook is also added to inform it when a window becomes
hidden/unhidded, this lets us map/unmap the corresponding actor.
missing files in preview commit (TODO: rebase -i and squash this later)
Calling clutter_actor_show_all() on the stage and overlay_group breaks
the ability for plugins to create initially hidden actors. Call
clutter_actor_show() instead.
If a mutter plugin name (in GConf, or more likely on the command line)
looks like an absolute path, use that path directly rather than
looking for the plugin in the plugins directory.
src/core/main.c: Add --mutter-plugins argument (overrides GConf value)
src/core/prefs.c src/include/prefs.h: Add meta_prefs_override_clutter_plugins()
to set a value for clutter_plugins that overrides the value from GConf
Remove a "got here" leftover, remove unnecessary trailing \n when
calling g_message(), include g_module_error() in the output when
loading a module fails.
If --disable-static is passed to configure, then .a files won't be built
or installed. Make removing them in install-exec-hook not fatal if they
don't exist.

The clutter_plugins schema key did not define the type of the
elements inside the list, thus making gconftool choke when installing
the Metacity schemas.
Since clutter_plugins is a list of strings, the trivial fix is
to add the corresponding <list_type> element to the schema XML.
We need to be getting ConfigureNotify events for these, so we can respond
to changes in position of these windows. We cannot add this to windows
Metacity manages, as this makes it got mental.
ClutterActors for hidden windows (such windows on different than active
workspaces and windows that are minimized) are available, and reflect the
actual state of the window. This is intended for use in task-switchers etc.
This feature is disabled by default (due to increased demand on resources),
and can be enabled through the metacity/general/live_hidden_windows gconf key.
A trivial sample window switcher is included in the scratch plugin (activated
by clicking on the slide out panel).

Support _NET_WM_STATE_STICKY (i.e. allow third-party apps to decide
whether a window is on all workspaces). Bug found by Ka-Hing
Cheung. Closes#557536.
* src/core/window.c (set_net_wm_state): report it

Slight transformation of the x-macros used in keybindings
to make them clearer: write handler names out in full
because the old suffix system was confusing to people
skim-reading, and switched the order of the last two
parameters so more would generally fit on a screen.
* src/core/keybindings.c, src/core/schema-bindings.c
src/core/prefs.c: sympathy changes
* src/core/window-bindings.h, src/core/screen-bindings.h:
transformation as above

During a discussion with Rodney Dawes about making life easier
for the translators, he pointed out that the short and long
forms of almost all the keybindings say much the same thing
in different words. I believe this is an unconscionable burden
to place on translators, and have therefore merged the short
and long descriptions into the short description. The long
is now a general explanation of the format, plus possibly a
notice about reversibility. Closes#469361, and should solve
the l10n issue previously mentioned.
* src/core/keybindings.c: reflect changes in *-bindings.h
* src/core/schema-bindings.c: reflect changes in *-bindings.h
* src/core/prefs.c: reflect changes in *-bindings.h
* src/core/window-bindings.h: Add flags field, always the same
currently, so that it's the same as screen-bindings.h.
Also, lose ONLY_BOUND_BY_DEFAULT, since we already had a
rather more elegant way to perform the same effect.
And merge the long and short descriptions.
* src/core/screen-bindings.h (, item): Merge the long and
short descriptions.

Since Patrick Niklaus's checkin of 2008-08-14 dealt with windows with
no icons not using fallback icons, we don't need fallback icons.
* src/ui/theme.h: remove fallback icons from struct.
* src/core/iconcache.c (meta_read_icons): don't look for fallbacks.
* src/*/ui.[ch] (meta_ui_get_fallback_icons): removed
* src/ui/theme-parser.c (typedef, parse_toplevel_element): don't
parse fallback specifications.

terse variable names, simplify the plugin interface or consider tweaks
for maintainability.
* Renames plg -> plugin
* Renames mgr ->plugin_mgr (since in a combined window and composite
manager I think "mgr" will end up being ambiguous in places)
* Renames PluginWorkspaceRectangle -> MetaRectangle (We are no longer
concerned about mbwm2 portability)
* Renames a few one letter variable names e.g. a -> window, r ->rect
* Renames some vars to indicate what they represent not their data type,
e.g. group1, group2 ->workspace0, workspace1
* Renames the variable mcw -> mc_window to make it more immediately
obvious what it represents.
* Removes the verbose META_COMPOSITOR_CLUTTER_PLUGIN_SWITCH_WORKSPACE macro,
and just uses metacity_plugin instead.
* Instead of hanging data of the plugins global descriptor, we just use a
standalone static global variable.
* Make do_init a function pointer inside the plugin descriptors instead of
special casing it and using another g_module_symbol call. This also removes
the need for the META_COMPOSITOR_CLUTTER_PLUGIN_INIT_FUNC macro.
* A bunch of anal 80char fixes
* Removes the screen_width,height variables from the plugin descriptor struct
and add a plugin API instead.

Make the bindings in src/core/*-bindings.h generate
GConf schemas too. Note that there's an i18n issue
(documented in schema-bindings.c) which will be fixed
next checkin.
* src/core/schema-bindings.c: major fixup to make it
ready for use as part of the actual build process.
* src/Makefile.am: added magic to make it call schema-bindings
after it builds it.
* src/core/window-bindings.h: added comments;
also, window menu was listed variously as alt-Space
and alt-Print; it should have been alt-Space.
* src/metacity.schemas.in.in: renamed from s/\.in$//,
sentinel added for the generated bindings,
warning at the top now untrue, and removed.

Fix annoying bug where alt-tab and friends would jump

An attempt to make life a little easier for our beloved translators;
this has the same behaviour as before, but removes over thirty
translation strings.
* src/core/session.c (start_element_handler): all "attribute not found
on element" strings are identical
* src/ui/theme-parser.c (locate_attributes): allow attribute names to
be preceded with "!" (in the code) to show they're required.
(parse_aspect_ratio, parse_distance, parse_toplevel_element,
parse_style_element, parse_gradient_element, static, parse_border,
parse_style_set_element, parse_draw_op_element): use the new "!"
prefix for locate_attributes(), or in some cases just the identical
constant, for generating this error.
* src/ui/theme.c (check_state, meta_theme_validate): add
translator comments
* src/ui/resizepopup.c (update_size_window): add
translator comments
