Avoid ambiguously implying that Linux users should be running Zotero as
root, and tell them to fix the permissions on the Zotero executable instead.

- Catch additional errors on Windows (too-long paths, maybe aliases)
- Fix "Show File" button (which didn't show in some cases, at least on
Windows)
- Clarify error message
- Remove all "Selected" from "Selected Item", because that's how a context menu works
- Change "Remove Selected Item" to "Remove Item from Collection" (fixes#122)
- Change "Delete Selected Item from Library" to "Move Item to Trash")
- Change "Remove" on Duplicate/Unfiled Items to "Hide" (fixes#122)
- Change "Create Parent Item from Selected Item" to "Create Parent Item"
- New tag colors support, with the ability to assign colors to up to 6
tags per library. Tags with colors assigned will show up at the top of
the tag selector and can be added to (and removed from) selected items
by pressing the 1-6 keys on the keyboard. The tags will show up as
color swatches before an item's title in the items list.
- Synced settings, with Notifier triggers when they change and
accessible via the API (currently restricted on the server to
'tagColors', but available for other things upon request)
- Silent DB upgrades for backwards-compatible changes. We'll do
something fancier with async DB queries in 4.0, but this will work for
changes that can be made without breaking compatibility with older
clients, like the creation of new tables. The 'userdata' value is
capped at 76, while further increments go to 'userdata2'.
TODO:
- Try to avoid jitter when redrawing swatches
- Optimize tag color images for retina displays
- Redo attachment dots in flat style?
- Clear all colors from an item with 0 (as in Thunderbird), but I don't
think we can do this without undo
- If attachment exists at same relative path in new base directory,
leave it alone so that it continues to work.
- If attachment doesn't exist in new base directory, revert it to an
absolute path.
- If new base directory is an ancestor or descendant of the previous
base directory, adjust relative paths below the new directory so that
they keep working.
- More dialog changes
- Select current base directory in file picker when changing directory
- Always use .persistentDescriptor instead of initWithPath(), though it
probably doesn't matter, and wrap in try/catch in case the old setting
is broken in some way.
- New function Zotero.File.directoryContains(dir, file), since
nsIFile.contains() isn't recursive
- Don't use a private Zotero.Item property from outside to force path changes.
- Changed placeholder to just "attachments:" for consistency with "storage:"
- Reworked dialog text
- Use a fancier (and undocumented) filefield XUL element for path
- A few small code tweaks
- New promise-based architecture
- Library-specific file sync queues, allowing other libraries to
continue if there's an error in one library
- Library-specific sync errors, with error icons next to each library
- Changed file uploading in on-demand download mode, which had been missing
- On-demand download progress indicator in middle pane
- More accurate progress indicator
- Various tweaks and bug fixes
- Various future tweaks and bug fixes
