Well we don't have another choice if half of the drivers crash kwin
whenever you watch a fullscreen flash video or use a screen saver.
Unredirect Fullscreen Window was quite useful in case you used
to play heavy OpenGL games, but pretty useless for anything else.
For the game and hd video usecase we nowadays have the better way
of really suspending compositing (either by the client indicating or
with a window specific rule). The plus of suspending compositing is
that the driver doesn't crash.
And yes we are "supposed" to no longer workaround driver bugs.
Good joke, I like to redirect my inbox to everyone who things we
are not allowed to workaround driver bugs.
CCBUG: 252817
Also add a usable "doesn't work why" info and WARN! the user about clicking the rearm button.
Merge "OpenGLIsUnsafe" and "CheckIsSafe" config keys
Move the entire checking into CompositingPrefs

The shadow effect is known to be broken since at least 4.5.
It is unfortunately in a state which makes it difficult to maintain
and the architecture has some serious drawbacks. Therefore it is the
best solution to replace the effect with a new and better
implementation. For more information about the new implementation
please see the discussion on KWin mailinglist:
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwin&m=129607406517609&w=2
This also "fixes" all existing bug reports about the shadow effect.
Most of the bugs will really be fixed when the new shadow system is
implemented, if not it is a new bug and a new report should be created
for it.
Please excuse that we go this unnormal approach to mark bugs as
fixed with code removal.

Our primary target is Texture From Pixmap and it is supported
by all important drivers nowadays. If a driver is not able to
support TFP using OpenGL at all is probably no good idea and
XRender is more suited.

Replaces one hack with another hack (due to having to support multiple kwin instances), but provides a much better user experience.
Big thanks to mgraesslin for comments, review, and fixes.

from David. Due to an elusive bug somewhere in kdelibs we have not been
able to find out how to fix the issues that some people were having.
There seems to be a race condition as I cannot reproduce at all, David
can reproduce sporadically and some reporters can always reproduce.
This commit attempts to also keep the code style changes that were made
at the same time as the original commit as well as some minor bug fixes
that were made between then and now. Hopefully I didn't miss anything.
We will be revisit this in KDE 4.3.

I don't expect this to fix the plugin selection bug, but it could aid in tracking the issue down.

If there appears any new, possibly related bug, be quick to suspect this commit, because it is not really tested, but should help to track the plugin selection bug down.

Also fixed a little bug in kcmkwincompositing (dropdowns on the general tab were not updated correctly) and cleaned up the code a bit (removed a few unneeded function calls and stale connects).
See the conversation on the mailing list ("Patch for bug 174769", http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwin&m=122696916611602) for further information.

TODO: Effects need to reload config after doing the change in the kcm.
NOTE: Default TimeLine constructor now creates invalid object, it is
necessary to explicitly call setDuration() in order to ensure all
animations respect this setting.
