This provides a new protocol intended to be used by auto-hiding panels
to make use of the centralized screen edges. To use it a Client can
send a client message of type _KDE_NET_WM_SCREEN_EDGE_SHOW to KWin.
KWin will hide the Client (hide because unmap or minimize would break
it) and create an Edge. If that Edge gets triggered the Client is shown
again. If the Client doesn't border a screen edge the Client gets shown
immediately so that we never end in a situation that we cannot unhide
the auto-hidden panel again. The exact process is described in the
documentation of ScreenEdges.
If KWin gets restarted the Client gets shown again.
As this is a KWin specific extension we need to discuss what it means
for Clients using this feature with other WMs: it does nothing. As
the Client gets hidden by KWin and not by the Client, it just doesn't
get hidden if the WM doesn't provide the feature. In case of an
auto-hiding panel this seems like a good solution given that we don't
want to hide it if we cannot unhide it. Of course there's the option
for the Client to provide that feature itself and if that's wanted we
would need to announce the feature in the _NET_SUPPORTED atom. At the
moment that doesn't sound like being needed as Plasma doesn't want to
provide an own implementation.
The implementation comes with a small test application showing how
the feature is intended to be used.</pre>
