The operator names all show up in the Search button. As such is nicer if they
can all have the main words capitalized.
e.g. "Snap strips" should be "Snap Strips"
"Copy to clipboard" should be "Copy to Clipboard"
This was done with a mix of bash tools, regex, and manual work because I'm too rushed into regex :)
+ fix bge stereo eye separation tooltip
Recoded the (2.65.1 version) region scale, which happened on loading files with
different saved size windows. Also scaling window itself was affected.
Old method: scaled region widths based on area/editor scaling factors.
That was leading to too small or too large button regions easily.
New method: region width/height now are in DPI control. Much nicer!
- On changing dpi, buttons remain visually same widths.
- On changing window sizes, the button views and zooms stick to exactly same.
Caveat: people who were using Blender with 'extreme' dpi setting, might find
the layouts slightly differ. Not sure if this is worth version patching...
Todo: overlapping regions that overlap together draw badly. Fix underway.
Notes and image:

- now each editor has own settings for "show panel header" and
"show panel background", and colors+alpha for this.
- this setting used to be global for all editors, but it can conflict
with looks of specific editors.
- Now you can set for editors to show panels with a 100% transparent
tool/properties region.
Note: read XML theme files now might get an error, Campbell will fix.
With larger header sizes (via DPI setting), splitting an area horizontally (using
left-bottom corner widget, move up) stopped immediate after split, not allowing
to drag it to a position.
Culprit was code to check minimum header size, and area operator using the same
flags. Now ScrVert has two flags - one for internal use, one for the tools to set.
- Move to layer (and more popups) didn't scale yet
- User Prefs and render window now open on right location on Mac Retinas
- Brush sizes for painting now scale for Mac Retina
Nice formatted version (pictures soon):

Short list of main changes:
- Transparent region option (over main region), added code to blend in/out such panels.
- Min size window now 640 x 480
- Fixed DPI for ui - lots of cleanup and changes everywhere. Icon image need correct size still, layer-in-use icon needs remake.
- Macbook retina support, use command line --no-native-pixels to disable it
- Timeline Marker label was drawing wrong
- Trackpad and magic mouse: supports zoom (hold ctrl)
- Fix for splash position: removed ghost function and made window size update after creation immediate
- Fast undo buffer save now adds UI as well. Could be checked for regular file save even...
Quit.blend and temp file saving use this now.
- Dixed filename in window on reading quit.blend or temp saves, and they now add a warning in window title: "(Recovered)"
- New Userpref option "Keep Session" - this always saves quit.blend, and loads on start.
This allows keeping UI and data without actual saves, until you actually save.
When you load startup.blend and quit, it recognises the quit.blend as a startup (no file name in header)
- Added 3D view copy/paste buffers (selected objects). Shortcuts ctrl-c, ctrl-v (OSX, cmd-c, cmd-v).
Coded partial file saving for it. Could be used for other purposes. Todo: use OS clipboards.
- User preferences (themes, keymaps, user settings) now can be saved as a separate file.
Old option is called "Save Startup File" the new one "Save User Settings".
To visualise this difference, the 'save startup file' button has been removed from user preferences window. That option is available as CTRL+U and in File menu still.
- OSX: fixed bug that stopped giving mouse events outside window.
This also fixes "Continuous Grab" for OSX. (error since 2009)
When playback was running fast the frame step could be 0, making playback jittery.
this commit just makes sure the frame step is at least 1, but there is still an issue with framedrop skipping too many frames (or too few) which Ill check on next.
fix pose-group-sort and pose-group-moving being disabled for pinned poses.
also fix for own missing NULL check for pose mask clear which would crash when run without an active object
