First of all, yes, JavaScript in the doc. I don't like this either.
The reason is that the new sections are super useful *when you need
them*. However, in practice, that's rare. So better not make the
signal to noise ratio worst. Future commit will introduce an
auto-generated summary of what's hidden.
This allows to state that this variable has a equivalent beautiful
variable named using the usual conventions. It will generate all
the boilerplate magically and also takes optional fallback variable
names.
So, now ldoc is implemented within ldoc, great!
This is done to allow new custom tags to have the same power and
expressivness as built in ones. This way we can express signals
and theme variables correctly.
Before this commit, the code directly modified the table where the tag's
properties were saved. This commit changes the code to call
awful.tag.setproperty() instead. This function ensures that
property::screen is now also emitted.

get_children's return value should not be called "The". That was a
mistake because ldoc requires a name for return values and parameters.
If a name isn't provided, it thinks the first word of the description
is the name.
* Add format docs to the constructor.
* Add timezone docs to the property.
* Give the argument to set_refresh a name other than "How".
* Fix bug in constructor argument "format" rendering.
Rulers insertion order impact the result of the bubble sort algorithm.
By inverting the order, we can make the output image looking more natural.
Awesome's screen properties can be seen like this:
* The screen has a geometry (its size) ;
* Inside there is the workarea ;
* Inside there is the tiling_area.
It seems better to draw rulers in this order.
Having the new object layout will be important soon when the
append/remove methods start to get added to the client and the
reborn `awful.keyboard` module.
As visible in various modules and even built-in components like
`awful.keygrabber`, it was previously necessary to work around the
fact that keybindings could not be added later without using some
low level API hacks.
From now on, `rc.lua` will be a good citizen and use the same APIs as
the module to manage keybindings.
Another step in moving these APIs toward the common object oriented and
declarative paradigms used by other APIs.
This commit introduces the `awful.keyboard` module. It currenly only
exists as a placeholder for the first few append/remove function, but
will grow in scope in another pull request to expose the currently
private modifier APIs and to provide keybindings collision detection
and replace some of `awful.hotkey_popup` business logic.
The `keygrabber` tests which uses root keybindings are disabled for
now to keep the commit size small. This is necessary since the shims
will need many iterations of changes before this work again with the
new syntax.
It might not be the most pretty of change, but it works. With this
change, it is possible to have multiple "things" in the "same"
section having the "same" name.
This allows for C/C++ style functions with the same name but different
signatures. Lua doesn't handle this well, so it should usually be
avoided. However, constructors might be a valid exception. Most older
widget (and object) constructors have multiple random argument while
newer one use `args`. Deprecating the old ones for the sake of
standardization might be a bit too much for users upgrading from v3.5.
Given the only reason all of those deprecation would happen is because
"its pretty that way", then lets allow 2 constructors and avoid outrage.
