With unintrusive error dialogs gone, we can cut some unnecessary bits
out of EActivity.
I'm also adding a new enum property called "state", which is one of:
E_ACTIVITY_RUNNING
E_ACTIVITY_WAITING
E_ACTIVITY_CANCELLED
E_ACTIVITY_COMPLETED
The state of an activity must be explicitly changed. In particular,
when the user cancels an activity the state should be set only after
confirming the operation has been cancelled and not when cancellation
is requested (e.g. after receiving a G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED, not when
the GCancellable emits "cancelled"). EActivityBar and EActivityProxy
widgets have been updated to make this distinction clearer in the UI.
E_ACTIVITY_WAITING will be used when activities have to be queued and
dispatched in sequence, which I haven't written yet.
For express mode:
- Move the search bar up to the toolbar.
- Hide the "filter" combo box and lock down the first item.
- Hide the "scope" combo box and lock down the first item.
(This is the combo box with "Current Folder" only in the mailer.)
- EShellView owns the search bar widget now instead of EShellContent.
- Insert several nasty hacks that will likely come back to bite me.

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.)
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.
EFocusTracker tracks the input focus within a window and helps keep
the sensitivity of "selectable" actions in the main menu up-to-date.
Selectable actions include Cut, Copy, Paste, Select All and Delete.
EFocusTracker has built-in support for widgets that implement the
GtkEditable interface such as GtkEntry and GtkTextView. It also
supports custom widgets that implement the ESelectable interface,
which is a subset of GtkEditable and can apply to anything that
displays selectable content (esp. tree views and ETables).
This commit integrates EFocusTracker with EShellWindow, CompEditor,
EMsgComposer, and ESignatureManager.
It also bumps the GtkHTML requirement to 2.29.5 to utilize the new
GtkhtmlEditor:html constructor property.
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.
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.
After the folder's context menu closes the folder tree selection jumps
back to the folder whose contents are showing in the message list.
Suggested by Philippe LeCavalier on evolution-list.
This addresses bug #593896 but is also a cleaner design than before.
It introduces an EShellView::execute-search signal and renames the
"search-execute" action to "search-quick" to clarify that it's only
meant for the "quick" search bar in the main window.
Shell view subclasses should implement the execute_search() method to
actually execute a search.
e_shell_view_execute_search() emits the new signal.
