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.

niri v25.08 added window positions to IPC, so waybar actually has the
information stored in json around.
This handles the associated WindowLayoutsChanged IPC message to keep the
position up to date in memory, and adds a couple of format messages to
show the current column, so one can dislpay where we are in the
workspace (in the hope of improving this feeling of being lost...)
Ideally a visual representation of the workspace like the one
illustrated in the PR[1] would be even better but this will probably do
for now.

This Patch allows the stretching of modules-{left,center,right} as well
add a "expand" flag to AModule. This allows one module to consume the
leftover space.
To allow the left or right modules to fully consume the center, the
changes also include a way to remove the center box (center_)
altogether.
