Want to avoid updating code we no longer use anyway.
Comments for areas to investigate or deadlines for deletion.
also some minor bool cleanup

We can't prevent users from using this branch, so I'd say it's reasonable to be a bit careful about what we store to files. In this concrete case we were storing a bit-flag for temporary use (only during early viewport transition) in a bit-field that's saved in files. Doing so would mean we either can't reuse this bit later or we risk breaking files (admittedly, likely in a pretty minor way). Moved the bit-flag to a new bit-field which can be removed later.
We will keep the old system working as long as we can. At the moment even the visibility flags we are getting from the old system. That will continue like this until we have decided on the new UI
The initial idea was to use Ctrl+E to interpolate stroke because this is
similar to Pose breakdown, but the Ctrl+E keymap is used to inverse
grease pencil sculpt effect.
The new keymap is Ctrl+Alt+E in order to fix the conflict
A new option (set in the properties region) allows the user to pick the
"new viewport" for the rendering (in the UI: Modern Viewport).
For now we have a semi-blank file (view3d_draw.c) that can starts to take
over the drawing pipeline.
I can't guarantee we will be able to keep both drawing systems working
through the entire 2.8 development, but it should do for now.
also, we can use branches for some of the viewport development, but it's
better to keep things in 2.8 whenever we can, so people can test it.
New recursive iteration over IDs in BKE_library_foreach_ID_link() was
broken by the infamous nodetree case. We cannot really recusively call
this function in that case, so better to deffer handling of
non-datablock NodeTrees as if real IDs here.
Also fixed initial ID not being stored as handled, in rare cases this
could also lead to infinite looping.
To be backported to 2.78a.
We *always* want to increase mat user count when from Object (and not
Data), because in that case we are moving mat from object to temp
generated mesh, material can never be 'borrowed' in that case.

If I didn't miss anything these are indeed not used. Old themes should still work (will only print info on redundant theme defines into console), but updated non-contrib themes already.
Transition away from GLU and legacy matrix stack. Using point sprites eliminated the need for most of the matrix math!
Depends on decent support of large aliased points. NVIDIA is good at this, must test limits on AMD & Intel systems.
Still needs proper scaling based on view zoom.
Part of T49042, touches on T49043 and T49450.
Apparently GL_POINT_SPRITE is important to GL 3.2+ compatibility profile, not just to GL 2.1 as thought.
We'll remove this during the core profile transition.
At context startup, make sure our assumptions about the OpenGL version are true. Should match since we set up the contexts... but this is what asserts are for, to check "should"s!
