While other borders are more like a toggle, it is an intrinsic behavior
of those operators. Render Border is intrinsicly split into two operators
and trying to expose it as a toggle will end up with rather confusing
situation when shortcut listed in the menu changes depending on the
context.
This commit adds a "Select Grouped" operator. Although it is set up to
allow more types of "grouping" in future, it current only supports
a single mode (i.e. "Same Layer"). As a result, it does not pop up
any menus/submenus in all the usual places.
Similar to object mode 'Select All by Type',
This menu is for various options to select based on some rules.
Moving into a submenu removes clutter, and means we can add other selection types.
This option helps users protect themselves from accidentally changing the cursor
location (and not being aware of this until it has already caused problems)
when drawing using Grease Pencil (or with other tools where this is equally likely).
It seems to occur most frequently when using a tablet.
Currently, this only affects the use of the mouse to set the cursor, as this is
where most accidental invocations occur.
(I'm aware that this change may turn out to be quite contentious. Fortunately, it
should be simple to just revert this commit in that case :)
Works much the same as intersect operator,
expose as a new operator since for users its quite different.
Access from face menu.
Internally, this adds boolean args to BM_mesh_intersect function.
The functionality was there, but the UI was missing, since I introduced
the use_mutliview option in the Image datablocks.
Note: when opening the image via the background image UI it has its
views data mangled. I'll look at that. Meanwhile the fix is to toggle
Use Multi-View manually in the UI.
Was confusing to have shade smooth/soft in both edge & vertex menu named differently.
This is an edge-flag, so keep in the edge-menu, use vertex option when in vertex mode.

Scene Render Views
* Ability to have an arbitrary number of views in the scene
Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

This commit adds a new mode for the Propagate Pose tool. With this new option,
the Propagate Pose will copy the current pose over to all selected keyframes
after the current frame.
For reference, some of the other/existing options are: to copy it to each subsequent
keyframe with the same value (WHILE_HELD - the default), to the next keyframe,
or to the last keyframe.
mode.
Yes it will, because those modes stay active. So on user side, expose
depth of field option always (I don't see why not), but disable SSAO in
wireframe/bounding box mode. It is a known limitation that compositing
does not support antialiasing yet, but better give users some more
control.
This could be included in final release but it's not that serious
either.
D1147 by @julien, with fixes/improvements
Duplicate bones where needed, otherwise use existing.
Keeps parent relations intact, can operate on parts of an armature.
Could connect a pair of verts previously,
now connect all vertices along the path, running a second time closes the loop.
Can also be used for without faces to connect edges between selected points.
This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.

For now, did most of the changes in menu entries (i.e. py space UI scripts).
Note we do not get 100% same results as previously, but current situation is
globally better than previous one, though the whole system to retrieve shortcuts
remains a bit weak...
