do big ops like big copies of 3 or 5gb files over to an nfs mount or a
slow thumbdrive... the os can happily store it all in RAM. but then
any stats on that file still being flushed stall - definitely on nfs.
this leads to much badness. so sync ever 0.2 sec OR every 512k worth
of writes to stay interactive. it's a big worse for perf and maybe a
bit worse on wear but it's far more usable.

so simple version: if firefox does CSD then when u press its minimize
(iconify) button it ASSUMES it will be iconified. it ASSUMES WM_STATE
will transition to iconic annd then back. it will cease rendering lots
of things when it thinks it is iconified when it isn't - e was
refusing because e wants windows tyo stay with live content so in ibar
and winlist and so on they keep showing updates). this assumption that
a wm will always iconify you when asked is wrong. a wm can refuse. so
basically firefox is brokne in its assumptions and logic. so work
around it but this leads to other fun things like clients stopping
rendering when iconified... as they now are told theya have been
iconified.
We can hide the e client frame during a uniconify if the user is
trigger happy (like me). It would be better if the effect could
be reversed during the iconify event.
This commit fixes an issue where e_entry_dialog would have a giant
entry widget and looked incredibly stupid.
This commit also fixes another issue where it was possible to close the
dialog behind the entry (ie: parent dialog) and the entry dialog would remain
open (eg: Add a shelf, the Shelf Name dialog shows up, and it was possible to
close the Shelf Settings dialog behind it)
By default, desktops should (realistically) be assigned some form of
name so that they are not blank. This Fixes the issue of no Desktop
labels in the Virtual Desktop menu, and also fixes the issue mentioned
in the below ticket where "Show on Specific Desktop" dialog would not
show any type of description for the desktops when trying to place a
shelf.
NB: Uses the format of Desktop X,Y (ie: Desktop 0,1)

yahoo is shutting down its free weather http api in feb 2021. the
existing forecasts needed:
1. move to ecore_con_url to remove al the manual http and http proxy
handling to simplify code and make it more robust
2. needed to fix the location configuration to selecyt from a list of
places or on a map
3. needed fixes to popup handling so it worked likc clock and didnt
pop-down on mouse out of gadget
add to that now a rewriter of the whole http api to be different ...
may as well add a whole new module/gadget as thats actually less work
to start again.
