We can't require the use of EUIManager everywhere because we don't
control all the UI manager instances -- the most compelling example
being the composer, whose UI manager comes from GtkhtmlEditor.
Instead, EPluginUI will check the instance type and pick an appropriate
"load_from_string" function.
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.)
Added em_account_editor_get_widget, and cleaned up the widget listing.
Cleaned the startup wizard code to find it's label by name
Added disabling of power-user 'indentity' frame in the first page express capplet.
Avoids blocking the UI in case the save triggers an fsync() which, on
ext3, synchronizes the entire filesystem. The logic is a bit tricky
because we want to limit the frequency of saves and only run one save
operation at a time, but we also want to do an immediate last-ditch
save before finalizing the shell view.
The signal uses the name of the newly created shell view as the detail,
so for example "shell-view-created::mail" is emitted when the "mail"
view is created.
Also, add e_shell_window_peek_shell_view() to obtain a shell view if it
exists but without instantiating it.
Using these new tools, teach the templates plugin to wait for the user
to switch to the "mail" view before connecting to its "update-actions"
signal. Previously is was instantiating the "mail" view itself.
