Apparently it's not allowed to set root context properties multiple
times. If one goes to systemsettings, opens effects kcm, closes it
and opens it again it crashes due to setting a context property with
same name again.
This change eliminates the need for the context property by modifying
the property of the QML objects directly.

Removes the ElectricAction for ShowDashboard and the relevant code
in screenedges and the KCM.
Also a leftover in the glide effect.

Remove the outdated docbook
This KCM is now in Display and Monitor -> Compositor
Compositor is not for Joe User, only for workarounds with broken drivers as confirmed by Martin
X-DocPath now points to userbase

X-KDE-ParentComponents is a list, so we have to check if this list
contains the plugin, not do a string comparison. It seems the
queryparser has become a bit stricter in this case. This query should be
fixed anyway, however, and it fixes a fairly important bug in the effect
system.

Currently just opening the Desktop Effects KCM loads QtMultimedia which
in turn loads gstreamer 0.10. If one opens any other KCM in
systemsettings and changes without applying the change, the window
freezes when the warning dialog gets shown, because the warning message
pulls in Phonon with maybe the Gstreamer backend which uses
gstreamer 1.0. This is bad, bad and breaks everything.
By using a Loader the problem scope gets reduced. It still happens but
only if one actually watches a video. Only opening the KCM doesn't
trigger the problem any more.

As we have the split between Effects and Compositor settings nowadays
it's incorrect to have an Compositor related option exposed in the
Effects settings view. Thus the OpenGLErrorView should be removed. As
a nice side-effect that simplifies the main qml file quite a bit by
turning the EffectView from Item into Rectangle.
If it shows that we need the reset GL check in the effects view it would
be better to use a KMessageWidget like in the compositing view.

Introduces partially checked checkboxes for Effects. If an Effect
has an enabled by default function and doesn't have an explicit
value in the config file the checkbox is set to partially. If there
is a value in the config, this will be used.
Clicking on Default will return to the partially checked state.
So far only the built-in effects support the partially checked state
and also the mutual exclusive groups do not support the partial checked
(main reason: RadioButton doesn't support it)

The idea is to warn the user that changing the settings might break
the setup when we know it could be dangerous. The following cases are
considered:
* Scale filter Accurate
* Tearing prevention
* keep window thumbnail always
* EGL if EGL and GLX are available
* unredirect fullscreen not working on all hardware
In addition the OpenGL is Unsafe warning is turned int a KMessageWidget
which is also used for all the other warnings.

This patch applies a common language and type-setting to the
systemsettings modules in kwin.
Considerations:
- The comment field might repeat the name, or give more detail about the
specific settings on this page, this makes sense with how
systemsettings and kcmshell present it
- Mentioning the words settings, configure, options, etc. is avoided --
it is clear from the context that these are settings and options.
- Title-case throughout in line with human interface guidelines, see
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Capitalization
- The comment ends up being the title, so the
- tech slang is avoided as much as possible, but left in where really
necessary
- I've left the Name field "mostly untouched", as that one is key for
the user to find the right module in systemsettings' icon view and in
the sidebars
The most prominent change is "Compositor" to "Graphics Compositor" (in
the Title field). This is more like a "suggestion", if you don't like
it, I'll take it out again. Reasoning: "Compositor" is a very technical
term, people who know graphics might recognize it. Others might not
understand that "composite" is about graphics -- hence the
specialization. Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting

For a classic user interface like the advanced compositor settings the
good old widgets are still better suited than the new QuickControls.
REVIEW: 118273
We need kdeclarative for i18n support. This needs to be done before we
load the source. By that we don't need to import Plasma.Core which isn't
used by the views at all.
Also we don't need to link twice against declarative.
This ensures that we can tab to the UI written in QtQuick. Unfortunately
it doesn't get initial focus, which seems to be a general problem of
KCMShell (QWidget based KCMs also do not get focus) and it's not possible
to tab out of quick ui again.
