Turned out there were several issues in handling of scale parameter by numinput.
Fixed that by factorizing more some code in common with 'usual' numbuttons eval code
(new `bUnit_getScaleUnit()` helper will return valid scaled value, depending on
given system and type).
Now, numinput behaves as expected - using default unit amended by scale in case no unit is given
(i.e. entering '20' with a scale of 0.01 will give you 20cm, and '20cm' as well!).
Commented out the 'no zero' protection of scaling transforms for numinput.
Issue is, once an axis has null scale, you can't regrow it from transform code
(you have to directly edit the scale property). This is not ideal, but getting
good behavior in this case is hairy...
Yet, when using numinput, you type precise values, so if you want to set it to zero,
set it to zero. User is assumed responsible, we should avoid too much 'invisible magic'
when handling precise inputs. ;)
Note: an idea for possible future feature would be to have an 'absolute' mode for numinput
(allowing to type in real value, not factors).
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
Handle vectors for the initial location were only stored when the handles are actually
selected for transform. When only the master vertex is moved this can still affect
the handles though, since they are constraint to one side of the master vertex.
Now the handle data is stored regardless of whether handles are included in the transform,
so on cancel their location is reset correctly as well.
When autosnap mode was nearest frame or nearest marker, this was incorrectly
converting the units to seconds, making this display unusable for anything.
They were using INPUT_SPRING in a way which didn't allow
it to easily redo the operator because INPUT_SPRING internally
is stored as a ration between old value and new one and crease
and bevel were converting this to value delta.
Now made it special input type INPUT_SPRING_DELTA which is
storing delta of the spring, meaning now values in the redo
panel kind of makes sense -- they mean how much to add/remove
to the crease/bevel weight.
Expect to be no functional changes from interactive transform
POV, just a bit more convenient to use redo panel.
This commit cleans up and fixes some problems related to how the auto-snapping
behaviour in the animation editors works, resolving the issues mentioned in T39819.
1) "Nearest Frame" no longer snaps to the nearest second when time is displayed in seconds.
Instead, there is now also a "Nearest Second" option, so that either can be used
as needed instead of only when a certain time display is used.
2) A similar change has been made for "Time Step" - This is now "Frame Step" and "Second Step"
respectively.
Notes:
* Removed the unneeded getAnimEdit_DrawTime()
* Time Step/Frame Step don't work for Graph Editor yet (and seem to not have worked at all)
* NLA Editor also seems to be showing some weirdness now. Will be checked on.
* Cancelling nearest-second snapping doesn't work nicely, due to another bug with GraphEdit transforms.
View2D had some inconsistencies making it error prone in some cases.
- Inconstant checking for NULL x/y args.
Disallow NULL args for x/y destination pointers, instead add:
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_x/y
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_x/y
- '_no_clip' suffix wasn't always used for non-clipping conversion,
switch it around and use a '_clip' suffix for all funcs that clip.
- UI_view2d_text_cache_add now clips before adding cache.
- '_clip' funcs return a bool to quickly check if its in the view.
- add conversion for rectangles, since this is a common task:
- UI_view2d_view_to_region_rcti
- UI_view2d_region_to_view_rctf
Ways how it was resetting its values (backspace) was far from satisfaying. Now, e.g. when scaling, it will reset at 1 (or whatever mouse-value it was before entering numinput), instead of some ugly 0.0 value.
Implementation details:
* Values passed to applyNumInput() are stored as default ones (val_org), if it is not EDITED.
* applyNumInput() returns a boolean saying whether it actually set values or not.
* When backspace hits its ultimate step (where it clears all EDITED flags and reset all default values),
it sets a temp FAKE_EDITED flag that will be used to apply one last time values of numinput
(so that default values actually get applied!).
There are important things to note here for code using numinput:
* Values passed to applyNumInput() should be valid and are stored as default ones (val_org), if it is not EDITED.
* bool returned by applyNumInput should be used to decide whether to apply numinput-specific post-process to data.
* *Once applyNumInput has been called*, hasNumInput returns a valid value to decide whether to use numinput as drawstr source or not.
Those two steps have to be separated (so do not use a common call to hasNumInput() to do both in the same time!).
Was using wire or black in many places, this color is used for cursor,
camera guides, transform helper lines. So its possible to have a dark
background with light overlay color.
Patch D331 by Brita, with some edits.
Disable transform and mask display when there's no active clip.
It's not a matter of returning fallback dimensions if there's no
slip, it's also matter of making it so stabilization and distortion
routines are aware of clip == NULL which is really crappy.
Also almost all the operators are disabled in clip editor without
active clip already anyway.
Also tweaked header UI a bit to not display mask stuff when there's
no active clip,
During drag the H key can be used to toggle the hide flag of the selected nodes.
This makes it easier to 'attach' nodes to available links in narrow places.
