Reuse the existing infrastructure in GtkActionMuxer for propagation of
accelerator information: in particular, what accel label ought to appear
on menu items for a particular action and target.
This is a good idea because we want accels to travel along with the
actions that they're tied to and reusing GtkActionMuxer will allow us to
do that without creating another hierarchy of a different class for the
sole purpose of filling in accel labels on menu items.
Doing it this ways also allows those who copy/paste GtkActionMuxer to
insert the accels for themselves.
Add a new method on the GtkActionObserver interface to report changes.
This patch introduces a new concept: "action and target" notation for
actions. This format looks like so:
"'target'|app.action"
or for non-targeted actions:
"|app.action"
and it is used over a number of possible alternative formats for some
good reasons:
- it's very easy to get a nul-terminated action name out of this format
when we need it, by using strrchr('|') + 1
- we can also get the target out of it using g_variant_parse() because
this function takes a pointer to a 'limit' character that is not
parsed past: we use the '|' for this
- it's extremely easy to hash on this format (just use a normal string
hash) vs. attempting to hash on a string plus a GVariant
A close contender was to use detailed action strings here, but these are
not used for two reasons:
- it's not possible to easily get the action name or target out of the
strings without more work than the "action and target" format
requires
- we still intend to use detailed action strings on API (since they are
a lot nicer to look at) but detailed action strings can be given in
non-canonical forms (eg: 'foo::bar' and 'foo("bar")' are equivalent)
so we'd have to go through a normalisation step anyway. Since we're
doing that already, we may as well convert to a more convenient
internal format.
This new "action and target" format is going to start appearing in a lot
more places as action descriptions are introduced.
I suspect that nobody is using '|' in their action names, but in case I
am proven wrong, we can always switch to using something more exotic as
a separator character (such as '\x01' or '\xff' or the like).
