The macros and functions are inconsistently named, and are not tied to
the "template" concept - to the point that it seems plausible to use
them without setting the template.
The new naming scheme is as follows:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_full
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback_full
With the convenience macros:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback

Using an offset from the struct means you can have children in
both the public and private (via G_PRIVATE_OFFSET) parts of the
instance. It also matches the new private macros nicer.

Setting up the icon and desktop file is a pretty central part
of making an application work, so we should do it for our example.
The fact that the examples are uninstalled makes this a little
more complicated.
I disconnected signals in dispose() to avoid a visible-tab
change notification during destruction, but this is clunky.
Instead, make the notify::visible-tab signal handler bail out
early when called during destruction.
Add a new example to the getting started part of the docs. The focus
of this example is on 'new stuff': GtkApplication, templates, settings,
gmenu, gaction, GtkStack, GtkHeaderBar, GtkSearchBar, GtkRevealer,
GtkListBox, GtkMenuButton, etc.
It is being developed in several steps. Each step is put in a separate
directory below examples/: application1, ..., application8. This is a
little repetitive, but lets us use the code of all examples in the
documentation.
Add support for a stateful action associated with a submenu. The action
state is set to TRUE when the menu is shown and FALSE when it is
unshown.
This is useful to avoid unnecessary processing for menus that have
frequently-changing content.
A possible future feature is to add support for asynchronously filling
the initial state of the menu by waiting until the action actually emits
its state-change signal to TRUE before showing the menu.
A silly example has been added to Bloatpad to demonstrate the new
feature.

The builder XML description has an action for "win.parse" but the
application is looking for "win.paste". Rename the label to
"_Paste" and the action to "win.paste" in the window action XML.

Change the format of GtkBuilder <menu> to be more in-line with the style
of the rest of GtkBuilder so that we can do translation in a consistent
way.
The format is now substantially more difficult to hand-write, but tools
should be along soon.
There is an xslt program attached to the bug to help you convert your
existing .ui files from the old format to the new one.

Add a switch. This demonstrates:
- that switches can be placed in toolbars
- that GtkSwitch is actionable
- that actions can be shared between multiple actionables
We add the app-menu and menubar public APIs to GtkApplication while
leaving the implementation in GApplication.
The actual implementation will be moved soon.
