Patch 5287 by Stefan: multiline help texts should become inside a single $output.

- Patch 4948 by Goba: the poll module uses check_output() on the poll options.

- Re-added STYLE/ON*= filtering (this got lost a while ago due to reorganisation)
- Added form_group's to node.module's filter options
- Fixed incorrect filter usage in poll.module

  the theme functions left the poll module's poll_view() function in a
  state where it does not display the poll results or vote forms on their
  own pages, since it uses another (proprietary) $block parameter to
  handle the case when the poll is rendered to be displayed in a block.
  Patch by Goba.

- Updated the calls to menu() to use MENU_HIDE instead of 1

- Committed phase 4 of JonBob's menu system changes.

- Committed phase 3 of JonBob's menu changes.  Adds an API for modules to
  define titles and breadcrumbs for their pages, and updates the theme
  system to display them.

- Patch by JonBob:

  Phase 2 of the menu system integration project. This unifies the interface
  used by admin and non-admin pages, and deprecates the _page hook in favor of
  explicit callbacks from menu(). Breadcrumbs, titles, and help text go away
  as a result of this patch; they will return in the phase 3 patch, printed
  by the theme.

- Committed stage 2 of the theme system improvements!  Patch by CodeMonkeyX.

- Committed stage 1 of the menu callbacks improvements.  Patch by Jonathan.

- Usability improvement: replaced many selection boxes by radio buttons.
  Patch by Stefan.

- Committed part 3 of Michael's help system improvements: removed the $help
  parameter from the menu() function.

- Help system improvements: eliminated the _system hook.  Patch by Michael.

- Bloggerapi module fixes.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Coding style fixes.  Patch by Michael.

- Small poll block improvement (without configuration option).  Patch by
  Gabor.

- Help improvements and translation improvements from Michael.  Thanks!

- Associate a callback with the menu links!  (This callback is not yet being
  called but will be as soon the remaining links have been transformed to use
  the menu system.)

- Made sure the menu does not render links with no callback and no children.
  Like this, the 'create content' link is not being shown when the user has
  no permission to add any content.

- Committed Goba's translation fixes.

- Committed Al's new admin link texts.  Remarks:

  1) As explained by Al, there is still a glitch with the 'create content'
     menu.
  2) The user module part of the patch did not apply due to Kjartan's earlier
     patch.

- Committed the admin menu integration patch.  Thanks Adrian, Stefan and others.

  joins".  Patch by Gerhard.

- Bugfix: fixed the CREATE FUNCTION in database.mssql as it needs to be prefixed with GO for some obscure reason.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Bugfix: fixed the defaults for blocks in database.mssql so the NOT NULL fields get values.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Bugfix: changed check_form() to use htmlspecialchars() instead of drupal_specialchars() as this caused Drupal to emit incorrect form items in presence of quotes.  Example:

  <input type="submit" class="form-submit" name="op" value="Submit "top nodes" block changes" />

  IMO, drupal_specialchars() is better called xmlspecialchars() to avoid confusion.

- Bugfix: when an anonymous user visits a site, they shouldn't see any content (except the login block, if it is enabled) unless they have the "access content" permissions.  Patch by Matt Westgate.

- Improvement: improved the error checking and the error messages in the profile module.  Updated the code to match the Drupal coding conventions.  Modified patch from Matt Westgate.

TODO:

- Some modules such as the buddy list module and the annotation module in the contributions repository are also using session_register().  They should be updated.  We should setup a task on Drupal.

- There is code emitting '<div align="right">' which doesn't validate.

- Does our XML feeds validate with the charset changes?

- The forum module's SQL doesn't work properly on PostgreSQL.

- Better CSS for the poll module.

- Al's CSS patches.  This commit improves the themability of some core
  components such as lists, form items, removes an ugly hack from the
  archive module and should fix the poll problem (although it doesn't
  Opera/Konqueror).
