xorg 1.15 introduces this extension which has a magical event to notify when a pixmap's size changes, which means that the size never needs to be manually fetched
this option provides the functionality which was intended by the old and broken "raise on focus" option. it raises windows ONLY when reverting focus in cases not directly triggered by the user or any application
after this commit, the new-but-invisible module "lokker" (or other custom loaded module) is in charge of creating all graphics for the lock screen, and it will be added to the user's config. failure to load a lockscreen module will just result in a black screen
desklock subsystem now handles all the pre/post lock stuff while the modules themselves are responsible for creating visuals and calling auth functions to determine whether to unlock the screen
if we're running in a non-X environment, we can't very well expect that using X calls to hide/show windows for desklock is going to work as expected. now a compositor backend can add a pre or post desklock hook to hide/show its clients as necessary
if a client's X attributes fail to be fetched on the first attempt, it's possible that we might succeed on a second attempt, which would prevent us from losing a client
in some cases, it may be desirable to block shape cutting for an amount of time to reduce cpu calculations. this should be set when performing any non-interactive compositor effects
this flag allows a client's layer to be changed instantly with no protocol-level checks or work, allowing compositor effects to do their work more easily
the existing moveresize popup infrastructure is very limiting in that it requires you to create a popup. if you don't want to create a popup, now you don't have to.
p16 is a pager replacement module which uses deskmirror to show you live views of each desktop. it has a separate theme and reuses a lot of pager code.
not sure if original pager should be kept, but it's still around for now.
pager and pager16 both provide the same gadget and cannot be loaded simultaneously
* finish updating for E19 api
* fix visibility changing on sources
** use that shelf data item added in previous commit to detect shelf visibility
* fix sizing (but not scaling :() and positioning of sources
* also fix stacking
pointers in E now come in two flavors, one for each protocol that we currently support. each is created from the owner compositor backend:
X pointers still work as usual
Wayland pointers are actually surfaces that we dump image data into periodically to render them as evas images
some small amounts of hack is necessary to make this work, namely blocking X pointers when a Wayland one is in use if we're running a multi-protocol compositor
adds a probably-working wayland framebuffer output module

variable takes the name of the output module s/wl_// ; example: E_WL_FORCE=x11
this module allows easy loading of a wayland output module to override any detection which may occur by force-loading the module during startup
in a later commit, an actual output detection mechanism needs to be added to run through all the possible output modes
this is the first of the wayland output modules, and it is extremely simple as a result of the compositor rewrite. for any other wayland output modules, it should be enough to simply create an ecore_evas canvas and do startup in this way.
* try to clear up build system for separating out ecore-x
* add #ifdefs for lots of ecore-x stuff
* break out some internal e wl functions for reuse in api
* store wl surface buffers as an inlist
* add protocol-specific client compositor data
** move lots of X client attributes here
* add pixmap type checks to a number of X-specific things, such as grabinput, to block them for non-X clients
* rearrange startup order to work with wayland
* move X screensaver code to e_comp_x
* flag modules still requiring X with -DNEED_X
given that compositing is always enabled and that it's crucial to be able to change these settings, potentially having them unavailable is not a great way to live
