Note: The "Insert Text" button pretty much replaces this, together with
the fact that editing 3d text is now much more powerful than the
usual text editor ;-)
IK: needed to change abs() to TNT::abs() (thanks brecht!)
Freetype: FT_ENCODING_UNICODE typecast to FT_CharMap (thanks intrr!)
header_image: missing include for liballoc stuff
Ketsji: needed to declare m_hitObject as public in KX_MouseFocusSensor.h.
This is probably the wrong thing to do, but KX_MouseFocusSensor.cpp
compilation fails on line 279 otherwise.

Shortlist of features:
- Unicode character support for Font3D
- UI to select characters from Unicode character list
- UI to select Unicode table areas
- Optimized character loading (Load only those characters which are used
in font object)
Please test extensively if it breaks anything, try also loading/saving
files, packing fonts, etc.
The official text regression file in the regression suite should be a
good start.
Thanks to mikasaari for this very useful addition!
Still not good, i.e. getting these when quitting: Error Totblock: 4
new bpytriple len: 60 0x8889bdc ... 'cause nothing frees them..
Changed the loop that parsed input args to PyArg_ParseTuple to have
support for passing ints from Python too as the floats that are the
coordinates. Didn't find PyInt_AsFloat and figured that this is an ok
way anyhow.
Changed the default handle mode from AUTO to ALIGN, which is the same
as in UI and more useful at least for me.
Little sanifying in CurNurb (this was done with Ton).
- "make track" in posemode only worked for objects, so disabled it for now
- in weightpaint, "Clear rotation/location" worked on armature-pose, as well
as on object. Was confusing... disabled clearing object in weightpaint.
conversion of data still. Remains a painful issue to get things converted
and in same time prevent things from calculated twice. :)
Anyhoo, issue was that old files with armatures in hidden layers went wrong

Support for Taper Objects for Curves.
Code for curnurb.setFlagU() method not changed as per discussion on
bf-python mail list.
much... made it 10 times larger, to match the max zoom level.
Nevertheless; on our ancient todo is that we once should give number
buttons 2 limits. One for the actual min/max values, and one for the best
sliding experience (matching zoom level or distance for example).
Using "make parent armature with creating vertex groups" option gave
corrupted memory when one or more bones had the "Deform" option not set.
Was caused by old boneclass SKINNABLE variable. To end this confusement,
removed this define from code.
Note for future Armature tool coders; don't use this bonelooper
functionality. Operations in Object mode for armatures should use the
Pose Channels, which is a simple ListBase to go over. I have to recode
the 'create vertexgroups' still...
- Pontus Lidman contributed a new module: Blender.Key + access to key objects from NMesh, Lattice and Curve + docs (thanks and sorry for taking so long to check/commit the patch!)
- Allowing EVENT spacehandlers to call the file selector (scriptlinks in general are not allowed, but this special case should be able to). Requested by Paolo Colombo (thanks!)
- tiny doc update (Ken Hughes pointed an error in the space handlers example)
I didn't have time to update the Key module to follow the current bpython design, will do that later and also test it better than I did.

Notes;
- made new Armature icon, based on looks of Action icon. Using a Bone icon
for everything was too confusing
- made softbody icon softer... it looked like a water drop, something that
would be better for Fluid stuff later :)
- the Modifier icon itself (wrench) looks a bit too much like a tool... but
its a clear icon that stands out.
- Undo/Redo didn't work
- Crash on using weightpaint with Armature-modifier (instead of parent).
Note: checking if an object is being deformed cannot be simply done with
checking for a parent anymore... for this a call in modifier.c has been
added; modifiers_isDeformedByArmature(Object *). It even returns the
Armature object pointer.
Add Intersect Modifier
Add Union Modifier
Add Difference Modifier
to the W key menu
Select 2 mesh object and press W. Then select a modifier entry. The active mesh selection will get a boolean modifier of the type selected with the inactive selection as target.
Minor modifications to simplify the code in evaluate_constraint.
The "Stick" feature will need more work as it gives bad results when skipping frames, jumping around on the timeline and when going backward in time.
Suggestion: Would be nice if it could use the local space too, not just global space planes.
- on adding armatures, the "use vertexgroup" and "use envelope" options
are now on.
- fixed ancient bug; on duplicate bone in editmode, it popped to the
origin of armature, if parent bone was not selected and current bone not
connected.
- subdivide bones now follows the Mirror edit option too
morning)
- fun for the whole family, boolean mesh modifier... doesn't work
with layered modifiers yet (just uses base mesh), although may
god have mercy on your soul if you want to run boolean on a
subsurf anyway
- added displistmesh_add_edges
This exposes a bug in boolean, apparently the output is somehow
random (hash on alloc'd pointer value perhaps) which is sortof
lame.
It also makes more apparent the desire for some level of control
over dep graph evaluation during editmode (at the moment dep
graph is reevaluated for a mesh object in editmode, but since
mesh changes are on editmesh other objects don't really see
any change, so it is a wasted recalc).
in 3d window, nkey panel, click in middle of number button & press ESC
moved the 3d cursor to that location. The button was passing on its
event to the window event queue, which shouldn't be.
