This marks the end of unintrusive error dialogs, which were too
unintrusive. We now show errors directly in the main window using
the EAlert / EAlertSink framework.
The mechanism here is simple but hard to explain without leaning heavily
on object-oriented jargon. Consider this a rough draft. Illustrations
would certainly help clarify.
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.
So Anjal can override what it needs to for its own purpose.
Also makes the EShellWindow design a little cleaner.
Methods added:
GtkWidget * (*construct_menubar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_toolbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_sidebar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_content) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_taskbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
EShellView * (*create_shell_view) (EShellWindow *shell_window,
const gchar *view_name);
Also added some new GObject properties to help decouple actions from
internal EShellWindow widgets created by these methods:
EShellWindow:sidebar-visible
EShellWindow:switcher-visible
EShellWindow:taskbar-visible
EShellWindow:toolbar-visible
