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

This commit is porting GtkPaned to be derived
from GtkWidget instead of GtkContainer, while adding
start-child and end-child properties. The existing
properties are renamed to follow the start/end naming
scheme, and we add proper getters and setters.
Update all users.
See #2719
The preview widget harks from a platform before time, when we didn't
have GIO, or a thumbnail specification.
Very few applications use it correctly, if at all; it has an horrid hack
to deal with the ownership of the widget's instance when accessed
through the getter function; it messes up the layout of the widget and
its label is less than useful when it comes to file names longer than a
dozen characters; it's a poor substitute for a proper thumbnail view.
along with a new 'type-format' setting that allows
to choose the output format for the "Type" column.
The options implemented for this setting are:
'mime' : Output from g_content_type_get_mime_type().
'description' : Output from g_content_type_get_description().
'category' : It uses the corresponding generic icon
of the mime type to group by categories (aka basic types).
This produces a more compact output than previous options,
and allows for type families to be grouped together, so eg.
after sorting by "Type" column, jpeg and png images will
be placed together, or the various types of archiver files
will also be grouped together.
This format was copied from and currently used by Nautilus
list view, so we also improve consistency with Nautilus.
Bugzilla entry for Nautilus implementation is:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683722
The list of type families or categories can be checked on:
https://developer.gnome.org/icon-naming-spec/#mimetypes
This 'category' format is set as default.
Issue #362
The position child property is problematic, since it
requires us to emit notification for all children when
inserting a child early in the list of children.
Remove the property from all ui files.
This replaces the use of ::button-press-event. There's two
issues with this commit:
1) We don't have a good way to do the equivalent of
gdk_event_triggers_context_menu with gestures
2) We have to defer to and idle to avoid ordering
issues with the treeviews own gestures
Showing all the different errors and warnings when renaming and creating
files/folders without potentially resizing popovers on every keystroke
requires us to know the size of the error messages beforehand, so pack
all of the possible error messages and warnings in labels and those into
a stack. This way we can also neatly crossfade transition between them.
