* implement a better dialog for things like "do you want to do X - yes or no?"
* dialogs for generic contents too
-* bug?: xine's ui window/panel is under its video window when u go
- fullscreen. is this correct?
+* tip/hint/suggestion dialog app (textblock etc.)
* netwm window types and states need addressing (do special/appropriate things)
for each of them.
-* use ecore_x_netwm_ping_send() to windows that suport it regularly to see if
- they are dead or not (do this all the time - like every few seconds) to be
- able to inform users of dead applications about the time they die, not some
- time afterwards. (also ask if u want to kill the process then)
* netwm frame extents request (_e_manager_cb_frame_extents_request) needs
to properly choose the border based on client window properties.
* do something with the icccm urgency field hint
* different borders for non-resizable windows, shaped windows etc.
-* actuallly break out ipc and config to set bg per desktop (per zone)
* add bg transition effects like crossfade, zoom in / out etc...
* break out ipc to set names for desktops and zones
-* bug: pager doesnt handle container/zone resize properly (and goes a weird
- size)??? (try resize screen to like 480x640 (new aspect))
* window icons should be able to be chosen if e eapp icon overrides netwm
icon or the other way around.
* eapps need to provide title matching too as well as name and class
-* .eapp needs to become .eap :)
-* icons should be able to be overidden from the theme (eapp and menu stuff
- etc.)
* transients should have option to always follow parent
(move/resize/raise/lower)
-* setup configs for gnome and kde (as options) if they are installed (eg
- run gnome-settings-daemon).
-* sometimes the mouse gets locked to a window with a mouse grab of some sort
- in x (it gets the down event and not the up?) so e thinks its down but it
- isn't
-* maximised apps when e restarts are not recognised as maximised
* actions to make current zone different (warp mouse to there)
* actions to make the current container different
-* could speedup dropshadow's gaussian blurr with mmx and sse by doign 2 or 4
- rows at once
-* make it easy for modules to hook into ipc and extend it for themselves
-* check evas has eet support early on.
* add locale and encoding fields to eapp files (to launch eapp in that
locale+encoding)
* add input method selector stuff to eapp - same as locale
-* gadman needs some changes to virtualise the canvas/container the gadget
- ends up in (eg in popups or border)
* titlebar/border expansion/gadget panel for modules to put window widgets in
* add actions to flip desktops on a given zone and/or container only
-* pagers should be able to be configured to control more than the current zone
- (select which zone they control)
-* re-implement all ipc to go via e_ipc_handlers.h and e_ipc_codec.[ch]
-* start module needs to have a way to alert users to "click here" and back
- off alerting users as they learn what it is (over time)
-* sometimes windows that get shut down/closed get unparented but the whole
- border stays around - something is keeping extra references maybe? it is
- hidden, until you flip desktops then it appears again - but with no client
- around. currently they have a dangling reference - need to find out WHO
- added that ref and didnt remove it (i haven't seen this for ages now)
-* fix action delete (can segv if action is stored for "long runing actions"
- like move/resize)
* break out desks x/y size config so you can have a different desktop size
per zone - right now there is a signle global (use this later as the default
for new/unconfigured zones)
