When yiz insert a keyframe (on a location keying set f.e.) in the 3D-view and you got an action editor open then the action datablock is not changed (displaying only the button "new") until you hover the action editor with the mouse.
Added a handler in the action_header_area_listener to handle this case
If non-obvious, some technical note about what the cause of the bug was and
how it was solved.
This makes a number of operators no longer ask for confirmation, rather it will
show an info message after performing the operation. Ref T37422 for decision. In
particular, these were changed:
* Delete objects, bones, keyframes, masks, mask curves, motion tracks, markers.
* Clear and delete keyframes in the 3D view.
* Align bone to parents.
* Separate bones from armature.
* Group/ungroup metastrips in sequencer.
* Copy/paste objects to/from buffer.

Frame change hotkeys now work in the following places:
1) Outliner - Main region
2) Action/NLA Editors - Channels Region
3) Info View - Reports region
Other places identified by the bugreport (but which I've decided to leave
alone):
- Text Editor (when no file open) - The way the keymaps work here means that
this can't be done without affecting normal text editing
- File Browser - What's the point of changing frames when you're about to
open/save the file?
- User Prefs - Is there any real point here either? Also, this is usually shown
in a separate window.
- when an fcurve had no selected keyframes, a default fallback value was used which caused view-selected to include frame 1, even when no selected frames were there.
- the vertical axis was always reset, ideally we would center vertically too but the way this operator currently works we only know about the frame range,
now don't change the vertical scroll when viewing selected since it would always jump to the top of the screen (view-all still acts this way).
node materials.
Area and region listener callbacks now get the screen and area pointers passed, so
they can do more fine grained checks to see if redraw is really needed, for example
depending on the 3D view drawtype.
* Click-select operators don't have "register" flag anymore
* Graph Editor click select can be undone, just like everything else
* "Current frame" -> "Current Frame" for consistency with rest of menu
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!
Now scrollbars correctly hide and show, making space for the actual contents
in a region. It solves several old hacks, and puts view2d code a bit more
back in control as well.
Implementation notes:
- The view2d mask feature is working again
- The #define V2D_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_HIDE means: "turn on hiding".
- Code for UI_view2d_region_reinit() is enforcing better standard view settings
But... two hack/patches needed to be added:
- Region panel drawing: if after generating the button panels it appears
a scroller hides or reveils, it calls all the generating code again.
(a simple scale doesn't work due to rounding differences in layout code)
- View2d code that maps 'tot' and 'cur' rects: if this code detects that
the mask changes, it calcs the map code again.
Also a bugfix (issue in 2.65)
- The left/bottom area split widget was drawing 1 pixel too large sometimes,
leaving bad trails on moving area dividers.
Snapping operator in action editor for grease pencil and mask wasn't implemented. We could probably re-enabled/fix/cleanup more things in this area (e.g. use a custom poll func for operators not supporting gp/mask, instead of silently doing nothing), but this is for after 2.65 imho).
This operator used to be called "Jump to Frame". It basically takes the midpoint
(frame number and/or value) of selected keyframes, and positions the current
frame (or2d-cursor in Graph Editor) at this point.
The hotkey for this is now Ctrl-G (i.e. as it's similar to a "Goto Frame"
feature). It is also now in the Key menu instead of in the relatively obscure
View menu, even though it doesn't actually result in any keyframe edits taking
place.

Changes:
This commit adds a second line to the tooltips (below the generic operator
description) showing the appropriate description for each enum option. This
brings it more into line enum properties in Blender which also show this sort of
information.
Rationale:
Operators such as Snap and Mirror in the Action and Graph Editors use an enum to
control their behaviour (respectively, "how to snap" or "what to use as the
mirror line"). In the menus, these options are displayed using a submenu, but
hovering over each of these items for more information from a tooltip only shows
the (relatively unhelpful) generic operator tooltip/description.
Another area where these descriptions are useful is for Keying Sets, where it's
now possible to see the descriptions for what each Keying Set
does/affects/requires. Again, this is more helpful than just the generic
tooltip, which would be something like "Insert keyframes using a Keying Set".
As suggested by Campbell on the IRC gave grease pencil its own notifier type (NC_GPENCIL) and made the makesrna notifier functions actually update properly.
Also got the #ifdef'd GreasePencil.layers.[new/remove] functions working.
