===============================================
This patch adds a new "Character" BGE physics type which uses Bullet's btKinematicCharacter for simulation instead of full-blown dynamics. It is appropiate for (player-controlled) characters, for which the other physics types often result unexpected results (bouncing off walls, sliding etc.) and for which simple kinematics offers much more precision.
"Character" can be chosen like any other physics type in the "Physics" section of the properties window. Current settings for tweaking are "Step Height" (to make the object automatically climb small steps if it collides with them), "Fall Speed" (the maximum speed that the object can have when falling) and "Jump Speed", which is currently not used.
See http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=127&aid=28476&group_id=9
for sample blends and a discussion on the patch: how to use it and what influences the behavior of the character object.
Known problem: there is a crash if the "compound" option is set in the physics panel of the Character object.
Rationale: custom props on linked objects are editable through ops and the console but the UI code calls RNA_property_editable() which returns false if (id->lib && !(prop->flag & PROP_LIB_EXCEPTION))
Setting the 'LIBRARY_EDITABLE' flag allows UI templates to change these props (but the changes aren't saved!) for things like indices into CollectionProperties which live on the linked object
Added four new functions as shortcuts to creating GHashes that use the
standard ptr/str/int/pair hash and compare functions.
GHash *BLI_ghash_ptr_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_str_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_int_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_pair_new(const char *info);
Replaced almost all occurrences of BLI_ghash_new() with one of the
above functions.
** I did not update rst docs. I will post on the quick-hack list. If no one volunteers to do it, I have it done before next release. **
this patch add the barebone functions to do glsl shaders in an addon.
For simplicity sakes it supports old GLSL, but not all the new modern methods (glBindFragDataLocation, ...).
It should be enough to make an addon to help with bge 2d filters.
I'm using this with a 3dview callback and it's working nicely:
self._handle = context.region.callback_add(draw_callback_px, (self, context), 'POST_VIEW')
I was considering not to commit this patch due to it not covering all OpenGL new methods.
But frankly it's not the first time bgl is expanded upon individual needs (guilty of that myself).
If a python developer knows enough to use OpenGL and need new functions, s/he should also be able to patch Blender for that,
so I see no problems here.
Another solution is to move to PyOpenGL or similar any soon.
glShaderSource implemented differently than opengl standards. It's taking one source at a time (instead of an array of sources).
This is similar with PyOpenGL solution.

undo.
The way this got updated from the context is a bit unreliable, and for handlers
the update couldn't happen because there is no context passed in. Now it's
updated from setup_app_data, which is where the change actually happens. I left
in the other updates to be sure but they should not be needed anymore.
- Make sure functions are named in way BKE_<object>_<action> (same way as RNA callbacks)
- Make functions which are used by mball.c only static and remove their prototypes
from public header file.
Further cleanup is coming.
