This was causing a lot of backward compatibility problems and side effects.
It has to be done properly, linked with Material ObjectColor shader_flag or at least the TF OBCOLOR (which apparently worked at some point so I've been told).
If you need to use OBCOLOR simply keyframe the obcolor and it will work as before.
* BL_DeformableGameObject is no longer responsible for handling keys, BL_ShapeDeformer is
* BL_ShapeDeformer also creates a copy of the key on construction and puts it back on the mesh when destructed. This avoids us permanently modifying Blender data.
* I'm not too fond of clearing out the key every frame, but this works and I can't think of another alternative at the moment (something may be possible with some key juggling)

original name: "Allow to change the strenght of the "go behind" constraint of the camera actuator"
The camera actuator is an actuator that drive the camera to follow an object, with a set of constraint.
Currently, when the object followed rotate on himself (like a person, or an helicopter), the camera is really slow to go behind (at least 10 seconds).
This patch gives the UI to tweak the strenght of the 'go behind'[named damping] constraint.

epydocs (rst) updated too
* Adding BL_Action::Play() and BL_Action::Stop()
* Making BL_ActonManger reuse BL_Actions instead of recreating them all the time
* Making the Property play type work for the Action actuator.
* Converted BL_ActionActuator::Update() to use the new action api (still just armatures)
* Not all of the functionality of the old Update() have been ported (Lood end, continued animation, etc)
* Things are still pretty messy. Once have things more flushed out, I'll start stripping more of the old actuator out.
blender_add_lib now takes a separate include argument to suppress warnings in system includes (mostly ffmpeg & python).
also only build wm_apple.c on apple+carbon configuration.
* Adding a BL_Action and a BL_ActionManager
* Each KX_GameObject has a BL_ActionManager, which can control up to for BL_Action objects at a given time
* Currently, the only interface to BL_ActionManager is through KX_GameObject via Python
* Only armature animations are currently supported
The tracker description:
"This patch fixes this bug:
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=25487&group_id=9&atid=306
This was accomplished by making sure the KX_GameObject's object color gets set during the conversion process in the method gameobject_from_blenderobject. Otherwise all the values for object color default to 0. The reason adding an IPO worked as a work around is because it set the object color."
The bug report mentioned is bug [#25487] "BGE: Object Color only works when it has a keyed frame"
* Adding keyword arguments to LibLoad
- load_actions (Default: False) Ensures that all actions are loaded. Otherwise, just actions used by objects in the scene are loaded.
- verbose (Default: False) Turns on extra prints (eg SceneName: MyScene).
* Also making error reporting better for when an invalid group/idcode is given.
