Move the search interface to a new widget: EShellSearchbar
The current search rule is now stored in EShellView, and the search
context in EShellViewClass similar to GalViewCollection (since it's
class-specific, not instance-specific).
Also add a couple new signals to EShellView: "clear-search" and
"custom-search" ("custom" refers to an advanced search or a saved
search -- something more complex than a quick search).
Still working out a few kinks. The search entry is clearly trying to
be too many things. We need a different way of indicating that you're
looking at search results. Perhaps a search results banner similar to
Nautilus.
This introduces e-shell-utils for miscellaneous utility functions
that integrate with the shell or shell settings. First function
is e_shell_run_save_dialog(), which automatically remembers the
selected folder in the file chooser dialog.
Also, kill some redundant save dialog functions, as well as some
write-this-string-to-disk functions that block.
Split the GTypeModule loader out of EShellModule as EModule, and rename
EShellModule to EShellBackend. Backends (formerly modules) should now
subclass EShellBackend.
This commit converts EShell but breaks all the shell backends.
Consolidate all marshalling specifications to e-util/e-marshal.list.
This reduces code duplication and makes it slightly easier to locate
unused marshallers.

- 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.

EActivity objects instead of numeric handler IDs. Create an EActivity,
configure it, and (optionally) connect to its "cancelled" and "completed"
signals. Then hand it to the shell view via e_shell_view_add_activity().
When finished with the activity, call e_activity_finish() and unref it.

- Further refinements of the shell API.
- Kill ESMenu and EUserCreatableItemsHandler.
- Start ripping apart the addressbook component.

- Discard libnm-glib method of monitoring network connectivity.
- Decided to make EShell a singleton GObject after all. Makes the
design cleaner, despite having to pass a singleton instance around.
- Make the switcher button style persistent.
