- Introduce the concept of "required permissions" - basically a permission dependency tree. In order for a group to be granted one permission, they must also have another.
- Improve redraw performance by not building dropdown menu contents until dropdown is opened
ref #904
- All custom JS variables are now preloaded into the `app.data` object, rather than directly on the `app` object. This means that admin settings are available in `app.data.settings` rather than `app.settings`, etc.
- Cleaner route handler generation
- Renamed ConfigureClientView to ConfigureWebApp, though the former still exists and is deprecated
- Partial fix for #881 (strips ?nojs=1 from URL if possible, so that refreshing will attempt to load JS version again)
This allows front-end translations to use basic (attributeless) HTML tags freely, without the need for the translator call to supply a matching vdom element. Translations can thus make use of styling (<em>, <code>, etc.) as they see fit. The translator call can still optionally supply a vdom element to substitute in more complex tags where necessary (e.g. hyperlinks).

Since Mithril doesn't really offer granular redraw control, typing in a text input on a modal would trigger a redraw for the whole page (including the page content behind the modal) on every keystroke. This commit allows components to be "paused" so that their vdom subtree will be retained instead of reconstructed on subsequent redraws. When a modal is opened, we pause the main page component, and when it's closed, we unpause it. This means that while a modal is visible, only the content inside of the modal will be redrawn, dramatically improving performance.
Turns out there's a little more to the regression in e5a7013. First, we need to give the spaces in between list items a key too. Second, there's a bug in the latest Mithril code where using string keys can break the diffing algorithm. I've patched it manually in our dist JS files for now, and reported the issue: https://github.com/lhorie/mithril.js/issues/934
- In Mithril, `finally` has been removed from promise objects as it is not part of the ES spec. See https://gist.github.com/jish/e9bcd75e391a2b21206b for info on the substitute.
- Fix a regression introduced in e5a7013 which broke some redraws
Extracts strings that were missed previously in:
- Dashboard page of admin interface.
- Edit Custom CSS modal of admin interface.
- Settings modal of admin interface.
- Post activity list on user page of forum UI.
Hopefully there aren't any more!
The default XHR error handler produce an alert which is appropriate to the response status code. It can be overridden per-request (by specifying the `errorHandler` option) so that the alert can be suppressed or displayed in a different position (e.g. inside a modal).
ref #118
We now use Symfony's Translation component. Yay! We get more powerful pluralisation and better a fallback mechanism. Will want to implement the caching mechanism at some point too. The API is replicated in JavaScript, which could definitely use some testing.
Validators have been refactored so that they are decoupled from models completely (i.e. they simply validate arrays of user input). Language packs should include Laravel's validation messages.
