The previous code relied on GIO implementing HTTP
with libsoup, so this is effectively not a new
dependency. And since many people don't have GVfs
and even if they do, somehow GIO doesn't work as
good as one should expect, direct use of libsoup
is actually an improvement. Plus the new code
caches icons on disk which we didn't do before.
Property name localization is only useful if the
strings are meant to be used in a user interface,
such as is the case with WebSettings, or for
graphical interface builders, which are not of
our concern, since we don't use Glade and friends
and nobody else is going to use our widgets.
In short, make translation work much easier.
We are not literally undoing in the sense of
reverting, this is actually about undoing
the individual parts of the last refactoring
that implemented the socket/ plug logic.
As turned out, the idea was nice but the
implementation was absolutely not, embedding
of processes in a graphical way is not
at all reliable enough for complex use cases.
Naturally this change should solve all sorts
of peculiar issues, including actual
regressions in functionality. Relieving.
Finally the trash, which was the last item that
needed to be implemented as an action, is an
action, a KatzeArrayAction to be exact.
This simplifies more code and also makes Window
and RecentlyVisited generically implementable.
Incidentally this change also fixes a bug where
the browser tried to add a new tab when the last
one was closed, even while destroying itself.
Furthermore sokoke_image_menu_item_ellipsized
and sokoke_widget_popup were promoted to Katze.
We're still keeping the old functions for now.
Something in the stack seems to magically turn
empty strings into about:blank, which is a problem
if we want to be able to start typing right away
when opening blank tabs.
We simply enforce the desired behaviour now.
The implementation relies on KatzeArray for the
most part and only does the storage with sqlite
behind the scenes. The change includes a working
History panel. Changes to the database are
committed in realtime.
