- UILayout.popover(.. panel_type ..)
A single panel
- UILayout.popover_group(.. panel categories ..)
Expands all panels matching args.
Currently used in the topbar for redo and paint options.
- WM_manipulatorgrouptype_remove- > free
- WM_manipulator_group -> WM_manipulator_group_type
Naming here is still a bit confusing,
now at least free/remove are differentiated.
Initial support for Python/Manipulator integration
from 'custom-manipulators' branch.
Supports:
- Registering custom manipulators & manipulator-groups.
- Modifying RNA properties, custom values via get/set callbacks,
or invoking an operator.
- Drawing shape presets for Python defined manipulators (arrow, circle, face-maps)
Limitations:
- Only float properties supported.
- Drawing only supported via shape presets.
(we'll likely want a way to define custom geometry or draw directly).
- When to refresh, recalculate manipulators will likely need
integration with notifier system.
Development will be continued in the 2.8 branch
This addresses an issue raised by D2453 -
that there was no way to check if operators are run
multiple times in a row.
Actions are still ignored that don't cause an UNDO event.
This gives us 9 flags available again for properties (we had none anymore),
and also makes things slightly cleaner.
To simplify (and make more clear the differences between mere properties
and function parameters), also added RNA_def_parameter_flags function (and
its clear counterpart), to be used instead of RNA_def_property_flag for
function parameters.
This patch is also a big cleanup (some RNA function definitions were
still using 'prop' PropertyRNA pointer, etc.).
And yes, am aware this will be annoying for all branches, but we really need
to get new flags available for properties (will need at least one for override, etc.).

Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D2400
Based on patch by @codemanx, but with slightly less verbose descriptions.
More detailed behavior etc. rather belongs to doc/python_api/examples/bpy.ops.x.py imho.
Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
This commit merges the code in the pie-menu branch.
As per decisions taken the last few days, there are no pie menus
included and there will be an official add-on including overrides of
some keys with pie menus. However, people will now be able to use the
new code in python.

Thanks:
Campbell Barton, Dalai Felinto and Ton Roosendaal for the code review
and design comments
Jonathan Williamson, Pawel Lyczkowski, Pablo Vazquez among others for
suggestions during the development.
Special Thanks to Sean Olson, for his support, suggestions, testing and
merciless bugging so that I would finish the pie menu code. Without him
we wouldn't be here. Also to the rest of the developers of the original
python add-on, Patrick Moore and Dan Eicher and finally to Matt Ebb, who
did the research and first implementation and whose code I used to get
started.
