An easy way to broadcast application-wide alerts to shell windows.
These alerts will persist in all current and future shell windows
until responded to (either programmatically or by the user).
Replace the EVO_EXPRESS environment variable with an --express command
line option. (Note, this adds a new translatable string for --help.)
Add an EUIManager class with an "express-mode" property and custom load
functions that use our new "express" preprocessor. This replaces the UI
manager functions in e-utils.c.
(Also going to see if I can get GTK+ to add an "add_ui_from_string"
method to GtkUIManagerClass that we can override. Then we could just
call gtk_ui_manager_add_ui_from_string() and the preprocessor would
automatically do its thing and chain up.)
Add an "express-mode" read-only GObject property to EShell.
Add e_shell_configure_ui_manager() to e-shell-utils.c. For now this
just creates a one-way property binding:
EShell:express-mode -> EUIManager:express-mode
Call this immediately after e_ui_manager_new(). (EUIManager can't do
this itself because it lives too low in the dependency hierarchy and
doesn't know about EShell.)
EMailSidebar is a subclass of EMFolderTree that implements the state
saving and restoration feature from EMailShellSidebar. Placing this
in the shared mail library allows Anjal to reuse it.
This -asks- an existing Evolution process to quit. It is equivalent to
selecting File->Quit in the main window. It does not kill the process.
My plan is to use this as part of a new --force-shutdown implementation.
The contact and contact-list editors now demonstrate this part of the
shutdown protocol. They listen for the "quit-requested" signal from the
shell and prompt to save changes, discard changes or cancel. If the user
cancels, the editor calls e_shell_cancel_quit() to do just that.
Use EBindings instead of a notify callback to keep other widgets and
actions synchronized with EShell:online. Cleaner and less error prone.

- Tighter integration of GalViewInstance and EShellView.
- EBinding. Stolen from ExoBinding. Lets you bind GObject properties
together to automatically keep their values in sync. This is a godsend.
Added to e-util, but might even deserve a place in libedataserver.
- EShellSettings. This is the concept I blogged about. Already
started ripping apart em-mailer-prefs.c. Others to follow. Any
place where we're monitoring GConf keys is a target.
- Incremental progress on the calender and mailer. Got EMFolderView
somewhat working, but I think I'll be killing off EMFolderBrowser.

dependencies in our libraries. The circular dependency between the composer
and the mail module is still causing me headaches. And it doesn't help that
the addressbook and calendar also want to link to the composer.
