Previously, it was monkey-patching the input layout object. This will
allow to replace the laoyut at runtime. For example, switching from
`fixed.horizontal` to a grid when the number of client gets too large.
It was previously monkey-patching the input layout object into
the final tasklist.
This is a breaking change, but affects undocumented behaviors. By
doing this, it becomes possible to expose the properties in the
public API. This, in turn, allows to document them. Right now,
the documentation is very vague on some behaviors.
As pointed out by @sclu1034, some users might actually pass the return
values of a function with multiple returns. This would cause some
confusing behavior. Documenting previous mistakes is in this case better
than hiding them.
* Check the correct variable
* Fix table access
In every other use of _private.keybindings in this file, the key is a
string, not an awful.key
* Simplify code
key.key is always defined
* Add tests
* add(spec) add_keybinding unit test
* Revert "Add tests"
This reverts commit 808b17cd5c.

the actual key is BackSpace, not Backspace, so this translation was always unused

The old behavior would move the client when `nil` was passed by
an almost arbitrary value. It would most of the time go off screen.
While this is a behavior change, what it replaces was so broken I
doubt anybody actually used `nil` in `relative_move`.
When the theme variables were moved to the backend instead of `rc.lua`,
some magic was added to disable them if the user set the border. However,
some undocumented `awful.placement` code also set them and turned off
the theme variables. So it worked *once* then stopped working.
If client client was tiled, the `fallback` could be
`theme.border_color_normal`, but if the client was
tiled, this fallback was never tried.
Now it tests for both "floating" and "active" fallbacks.
This problem actually affects the default theme.
It might be a good idea to deprecate them and move them to the tag
class. However, these APIs are not exactly well designed, so
moving them wont solve that. Some day the dynamic client layout will
hopefully be merged and send these functions to the heap of smelly
bad ideas trash.
The last time this page had a refresh was in parallel with another
massive whole-doc project. Thus, this page still had older
conventions which everything else had already removed.
