I've extended the rights framework (centering on the Right class and Profile::hasRight()) to cover
Web login and API use. This will make it possible to prevent login and API use by users.
I added two new Right constants to the Right class: WEBLOGIN and API. I check these rights using
Profile::hasRight() when initializing users. If the rights check fails, I throw an exception.
I created a new AuthorizationException class for this particular
exception, in order to allow a different UI for these kinds of exceptions (or whatever).
$config['site']['logperf'] = true; // to record & dump total hits of each type and the runtime to syslog
$config['site']['logperf_detail'] = true; // very verbose -- dump the individual cache keys and queries as they get used (may contain private info in some queries)
Seeing 180 cache gets on a timeline page seems not unusual currently; since these run in serial, even relatively small roundtrip times can add up heavily.
We should consider ways to reduce the number of round trips, such as more frequently storing compound objects or the output of processing in memcached.
Doing parallel multi-key lookups could also help by collapsing round-trip times, but might not be easy to fit into SN's object model. (For things like streams this should actually work pretty well -- grab the list, then when it's returned go grab all the individual items in parallel and return the list)
common_shorten_links() can only access the web session's logged-in user, so never properly took user options into effect for posting via XMPP, API, mail, etc.
Adds an optional $user parameter on common_shorten_links(), and a $user->shortenLinks() as a clearer interface for that.
Tweaked some lower-level functions so $user gets passed down -- making the $notice_id param previously there for saving URLs at notice save time generalized a little.
Note also ticket #2919: there's a lot of duplicate code calling the shortening, checking the length, and reporting near-identical error messages. These should be consolidated to aid in code and translation maintenance.
This option may be useful for intranet sites that don't have direct access to the internet, as they may be unable to successfully fetch those resources.
I've consolidated the checks for which user to use for single-user mode into User::singleUser(), which now uses the configured nickname by preference, falling back to the site owner if it's unset.
This is now called consistently from the places that needed to use the primary user's nickname in routing setup.
Setting $config['singleuser']['nickname'] should now work again as expected.
* now ignoring if-modified-since if we failed an etag if-none-match comparison, per spec
* now including a hash of user id/nickname in most etags, so we'll update the view properly after login/logout
For API methods, checking the API-auth'ed user. (Many change results to include things like 'you're subscribed to this user' or 'this is one of your favorites', so user info is again needed)
There'll still be some last-modified stamps that aren't including user info properly, probably.
When bogus SSL sites etc were hit through a shortening redirect, sometimes link resolution kinda blew up and the user would get a "Can't linkify" error, aborting their post.
Now catching this case and just passing through the URL without attempting to resolve it. Could benefit from an overall scrubbing of the freaky link/attachment code though...! :)

* Moved notification sending from Notice::saveReplies to distrib queue handler, so it'll pull from the reply set we've saved regardless of how we got it.
* Set up gettext infrastructure for command-line scripts; gets localization mail notifications etc working from background queues.
* Adjusted locale switching: common_switch_locale() works at runtime for bg scripts, forces a message catalog update
Refactored some of the returnto handling code. It looks like we have several different ways of handling this in the software, icky!
Marked the session-based functions with fixmes (they'll stomp on other forms when multiple tabs/windows are used) and combined some commonish bits of code between ProfileFormAction and the group block & makeadmin actions where they're using hidden form parameters. Extended that to allow passing dynamic parameters (eg 'page') as well as static ones (action, target user/group).
