A new global method is exported to perform a remote method call
through D-Bus. The call is always performed async invoking a
callback once the call completed passing through the arguments
received from D-Bus.
Possible code looks like the following:
callDBus("org.kde.kwin", "/KWin", "org.kde.KWin", "currentDesktop", function (desktop) {
print("Current Desktop through D-Bus: ", desktop);
});

ScreenEdge is changed to emit a signal whenever a screen edge
got activated without an action or effect taking care of it.
A Script can reserve one to many callbacks for an edge and the
callback get's triggered whenever the signal is emitted. On
deconstruction of the Script the edge is unreserved again.

Further debugging functionality for KWin scripts. Added assert
methods validate the to be tested parameter and throw a script
error if the value is not valid.
Following methods are available:
* assert(value)
* assertTrue(boolean)
* assertFalse(boolean)
* assertEquals(expected, actual)
* assertNull(nullValue)
* assertNotNull(notNullValue)
All methods take an additional optional parameter which is used
as the error message if provided.
Methods to validate the number of arguments and types of the
parameters are added and throw syntax or type errors.

MediaWiki syntax with the tools found in
kde:scratch/graesslin/kwin-scripting-api-generator git
repository.
