This commit implements the idea brought up in #5032, and provides a
simple function for GtkEditable implementations using a delegate object.
The accessible state is proxied from the outher GtkEditable to the
delegate.
Those property features don't seem to be in use anywhere.
They are redundant since the docs cover the same information
and more. They also created unnecessary translation work.
Closes#4904
This gesture is set on the whole widget surface, since there's
multiple input targets inside an entry (icons, the GtkText itself)
it makes sense to consider the full entry an area handling clicks.
Ensure these events don't propagate further up, and result in other
actions.
Orca ignores events unless the object is inside an object
with role window and states ACTIVE and SHOWING. To arrange
for this, introduce a new ACTIVE platform state, and set it
for windows when they are active.
This gets orca to be a lot more talkative.
When the text says it has handled the event,
trust it. We don't want to emit ::search-started
if the content hasn't changed, but we still
should not propagate e.g. an Insert key press
if it has already toggled overwrite mode in
the text.
Fixes: #2874
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.
-- Alexander Pierce, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"
ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

Shift-Tabbing was getting stuck in GtkSearchEntry and
GtkPasswordEntry, since they grab the focus to a child
of theirs. Copy the same fix that we are already using
in GtkEntry.
