Summary:
The title actually says it all, it's just possible to
have independent free handles for mask splines. Also
it's now possible to have aligned handles displayed
as independent handles.
Required changes in quite a few places, but they're
rather straightforward.
From user perspective there's one really visible change
which is removed Handle Type menu from the panel. With
asymmetric handles it's not clear which handle type to
display there. So now the only way to change handle type
is via V-key menu.
Rewrote normal evaluation function to make it deal
with new type of handles we support. Now it works in
the following way:
- Offset the original spline by maximal weight
- Calculate vector between corresponding U positions
on offset and original spline
- Normalize this vector.
Seems to be giving more adequate results and doesn't
tend to self-intersect as much as old behavior used to,
There're still some changes which needed to be done, but
which are planned for further patch:
- Support colors and handle size via themes.
- Make handles color-coded, just the same as done for
regular bezier splines in 3D viewport.
Additional changes to make roto workflow even better:
- Use circles to draw handles
- Support AA for handles
- Change click-create-drag to change curvature of the
spline instead of adjusting point position.

Allow duplicating splines from inactive layers. This way it's
more useful IMO than restricting duplication to an active layer.
TODO: What should be a behavior for clipboard (currently it copies
splines from an active layer only)?
So now it's possible to copy-paste splines between layers.
Implementation is pretty much straightforward and duplicates
some logic which we've got in sequencer/tracking clipboards.
Will work on a common routine for clipboards later, for now
it's not so much crucial to have.
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.

Currently only circle and square, might be easily
extended in the future.
New primitives are creating at cursor location.
This also implied adding 2d cursor to space clip.
Also fix set 2D cursor location which didn't work
in image editor's mask mode since 2.67.
TODO: draw_image_cursor better be moved to some
more generic file, but it's not so much
important for now and might be solved later.
Thanks Campbell for the review!
Topic says it all :)
Jut implemented operator to duplicate mask points
and segments between them (exactly the same behavior
as Curve object duplication in edit mode).
Does not copy animation, but that's tricky and likely
not needed anyway.
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!
- use Alt to modify all mask feather at once while dragging.
- copying a multi-user mask from the interface works now.
- show masks when UV editing isnt used, rather then checking editmode (would give some odd/annoying image space header).
- add a fake mask user by default.
- moving points with LMB drag no longer selects them.
