Post-0.15.0 review of the 0.15.0..HEAD range surfaced regressions and
bugs. This restores backward compatibility for existing configs/CSS,
fixes confirmed defects, and repairs the scdoc man-page build break on
master. Pango-markup tooltips are intentional and were kept.
Backward-compat restorations:
- AModule: honor legacy numeric Gdk::CursorType cursor values (int overload)
- memory: correct GiB divisor (was ~2.3% low); round bare {} placeholders
- wireplumber: scale max-volume into the linear domain so the cap works again
- idle_inhibitor: gate right/middle-click deactivate & scroll on dynamic-timeouts;
accept both dynamic-timeout(s); widen timeout to double (no fractional truncation)
- custom: keep #custom-<name>.<class> CSS selectors working (classes on box_)
- image: don't wordexp-split a single path; fall back to the literal path
- niri/window: restore hide-when-empty (new show-empty opt-in); escape tooltip
- wlr/taskbar: plain-text tooltip when markup is disabled
Bug fixes:
- tray: fix use-after-free in onAdd; guard the watcher retry timeout
- hyprland: clamp max-windows iterator (OOB); drop duplicate language tooltip block
- niri/window: supply {col}/{max_col} args in the empty branch (fmt::format_error)
- mpris: escape {dynamic}/{player} tooltip; fix dangling player; albumArtist source
- mango: fix use-after-free race (dispatch under callback_mutex_)
- mpd: contain throwing checkErrors in noexcept idle paths (no std::terminate/UAF)
- keyboard_state: always render every lock label, with guarded defaults
- bluetooth: bound GATT ReadValue timeout, opt-in + services-resolved gating,
preserve authoritative Battery1 percentage
- wireplumber: fix WpDevice reference leak / NULL handling
- battery, clock, dwl, wayfire, graph, custom_graph, transform, river: assorted
crash/logic fixes
Man page / build:
- niri-workspaces: fix scdoc "indented by an amount greater than 1"
(workspace-taskbar sub-options were mis-indented; breaks man-page build)
- document new show-empty (niri/window); correct network {txBitrate}/{rxBitrate}
Not compiled locally (no gtkmm on this host); C++ build relies on CI.
Man pages validated with scdoc 1.11.4.

The hover-check Glib::signal_timeout re-arms every 50ms and is not owned by
the Workspace. Since Workspaces are destroyed at runtime, a workspace removed
while its check is armed would let the timeout fire on freed memory (use-after-
free, also touching the destroyed m_button). Add a destructor that calls
stopHoverCheck() to disconnect the source.
Hyprland 0.54 replaced the text-based dispatch socket protocol with a
Lua-based one. Commands like "dispatch workspace 1" are now interpreted
as invalid Lua (return hl.dispatch(workspace 1)), breaking workspace
clicks and scroll navigation.
Add IPC::dispatch() that probes the running Hyprland on first call and
routes commands through the new hl.dsp Lua API when the Lua protocol is
detected, falling back to the old text format otherwise.
Enable per-workspace styling by adding the workspace name as a
CSS class to each workspace button. The name is sanitized to a
valid CSS identifier: lowercased, non-alphanumeric characters
collapsed to hyphens, digit-leading names prefixed with "ws-".
Examples: "IDE" → .ide, "special:telegram" → .telegram, "1" → .ws-1
Allows users to style individual workspaces:
#workspaces button.telegram { color: #54a0e0; }
This commit addresses memory churn caused by implicit deep copies during traversal and allocation of complex structures:
- Replaced pass-by-value 'Json::Value' in std::ranges and range-based for loops with 'const auto&' or 'const Json::Value&' in Hyprland modules, preventing large JSON tree duplications on every update.
- Fixed implicit string and pair copies in UPower and CPU Frequency loops by converting 'auto' to 'const auto&' where possible.
- Added 'std::vector::reserve' calls before 'push_back' loops in MPRIS, Niri, and CFFI modules to prevent exponential vector reallocation during initialization.

TODO:
- Sometimes the active event arrives before the create, in which case the window is not activated.
- The window title event also looks unreliable in some cases, will need to investigate
