The default full build of OpenLayers.js is 943kb as of 2.10; this gzips down to a couple hundred kb
but is still rather nasty, plus loading it off a remote host could slow things down.
Using a local copy let us cut down the size significantly by discarding unused features, and further
minification with yui-compressor shaves a bit more off. Cuts down to about 1/5 the size of the
original.
Also threw in a bundled & minified copy of the Mapstraction classes plus our usermap.js,
which covers the common case of using the default OpenLayers provider. This cuts out three
additional script loads, two of which weren't getting launched until after the mxn.js main
file got loaded.
Included Makefile will recreate the OpenLayers.js using the statusnet.cfg strip configuration file
and yui-compressor to do some extra minification at the end. Requires fetching the OpenLayers
source download and dropping it in:

$config['twitter']['ignore_errors'] = true;
A longer-term solution is to patch up the indirect retry handling to count retries better, or delay for later retry sensibly.
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.
Separating the two forms (one to create a local account, the other to attach the OpenID to an existing account) gets them working -- enter activates the appropriate default button.
We were clearing the counter on the window title in the blur event, which gets fired *after* we switch away, thus triggering Firefox to mark the tab as updated again.
Clearing the counter on *focus* instead avoids this, and keeps the counter out of the way as well.
Identified several bugs and fixmes, and added more thorough labeling of the issues with replicating the entire HTML structure of notices (no i18n, missing new features, maintenance problems, possible other issues)
Most annoying error case being where the notice was already faved or deleted on Twitter! :)
Such errors will now just fail out and log a note to the syslog -- the rest of what we were doing will continue on unhindered, so you can still delete, favorite, etc and it just won't sync the info over in that case.
