linked via material
Textures linked to modifiers are now shown in the AnimEditor channel hierarchy
under object level now (i.e. on same level as ob-data, shapekeys, and object's
action). This makes it possible to edit such animation data without having to
ensure that these textures are also linked to the object's material so that they
will appear.
As a side-effect of how this is implemented, if playback is slower on scenes
following this commit, disable the "modifier" filter under the filtering
settings in the relevant animation editor header. In particular, it may be
beneficial to disable this when you've got scenes with meshes that have many
modifiers (but none of these have any linked data with settings which can be
animated), as Blender will still try to go through all those modifiers checking
for anything to show.
- script execution is off by default
- if a blend file attempts to execute a script
this shows a message in the header with the action
that was suppressed (script/driver/game-autostart) and 2 buttons to either reload the file trusted, or to ignore the message.
- the file selector will always default to use the trust setting in the user preferences,
but reloading an open file will keep using the current setting (whatever was set before or set on the command-line).
- added SCons setting WITH_BF_PYTHON_SECURITY, this sets the default state for the user prefereces not to trust blend files on load.
... this option was in CMake before, but always off, now its enabled by default for SCons and CMake, and forced on in CMake for now.
* Added a node to convert wavelength (in nanometer, from 380nm to 780nm) to RGB values. This can be useful to match real world colors easier.

ToDo:
* Move some functions into an util file, maybe a common util_color.h or so.
* Test GPU, unfortunately sm_21 doesn't work for me yet.
* CHARTAB: not needed anymore with improved copy/paste support and text input.
* IDPOIN: replaced by SEARCH_MENU.
* ICONROW/ICONTEXTROW: replaced by RNA enums.
* NUMABS: can use min/max limits instead.
* BUT_TOGDUAL, TOG3, TOGR, SLI: not used in 2.5 interface.
* RNA's editor types enum (space_type_items) has been re-ordered, added icons, and removed internal-only SPACE_EMPTY value, so that it matches the menu.
* Two fixes in code drawing enums as dropdown menu:
** All items were taken into account when computing the number of needed columns, now simple separators (void string items) are ignored.
** Simple separators items were drawn as labels, taking far too much space!
And now translators will be free from that ugly, insane menu-string! :P
Thanks to Brecht for the review.
tracks
As a convenience feature for those who are loading in action libraries and using
these to quickly block out things in the NLA editor, it is now possible to add
strips to AnimData blocks without first manually creating empty tracks to add
these strips to. Simply ensure that such empty AnimData blocks are selected
(Hint: click on the action line of the affected AnimData block to do so), and
try to add a strip normally.
offsets too (like for location)
This is useful in some cases when Copy Rotation constraints would otherwise be
used for this purpose but cannot be used for various reasons. Basically, this
works in practically the same way that the Copy Rotation offsets work, including
the same weirdness that you'll get when trying to manually rotate these in the
3D viewport using "global" space manipulations ("local/normal" spaces though
still seem to work really nicely).
WARNING: this may potentially break old files with transform constraint setups
involving rotation outputs. Please check whether this causes any problems on old
files, and report back if there are any issues.
When you convert a grease pencil stroke to a polygon curve and look at the
vertices, the first and last vertex have weight = 0, but all others have a -NaN
value. This was caused by division by zero issues when minmax_weights[0] ==
minmax_weights[1].
* VERTEX_WEIGHT modifiers had quite a messy UI, improved the grouping of options a bit, so it is easier to scan through.
* Do not use abbreviations like "Rem" or "Dist" in the UI...
* Also small change for BEVEL modifier UI for more efficient space usage.
NodeInternal as a base, which is a wrapper to expose the C callbacks as methods in bpy. Now these basic node types are also based on NodeInternal to ensure the full interface is available to py scripts.
In the process removed the unused NodeGroup register function, this doesn't work nicely anyway because it requires multiple inheritance which RNA doesn't support (so py node groups should be done
entirely in python in the future).
Caused by my recent normal calculation changes, added dependsOnNormals callback which was missing for ocean modifier (it assumed input normals were set).
