We want the notifications in the flyout to behave just like links,
including standard middle-click and Ctrl-click behavior. The simplest
way to do that would be to actually make them links - but the area can
contain a few other links, so we can't do that and have to resort to
ugly hacks.
Or do we?
Turns out that while browsers won't accept HTML containing nested <a>
tags[1], such a structure is valid XHTML, and it's possible to create
such structure in HTML mode using DOM manipulation. It works like one
would expect: the entire thing is clickable, but inner <a> tags' hrefs
override outer ones.
Firefox even had a request to make that work[2] which was happily
fulfilled.
Tested the basic case [see below] on Firefox 22, Opera 12, Opera 15
(which uses the Blink engine like Chrome), IE 8 and IE 6 and it works
the same on all of them. Tested the XHTML variant [see below] on all
of the above except for the IEs which don't grok XHTML and it exhibits
the same behavior.
[1] Simple test: $('<div>1<a>2<a>3</a>4</a>5</div>').html() is
"1<a>2</a><a>3</a>45", not actually "1<a>2<a>3</a>4</a>5" like one
might expect.

The test cases used are below. When trying out the XHTML one make sure
that the browser uses application/xhtml+xml MIME type; saving the file
with .xhtml extension should be enough.
XHTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<body>
<div>1<a href="http://google.com/">2<a href="http://example.com/">3</a>4</a>5</div>
</body>
</html>
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var div = document.createElement('div');
var a1 = document.createElement('a');
a1.href = "http://google.com/";
var a2 = document.createElement('a');
a2.href = "http://example.com/";
div.appendChild( document.createTextNode('1') );
div.appendChild( a1 );
a1.appendChild( document.createTextNode('2') );
a1.appendChild( a2 );

Out of the default MW skins these only seem to affect CologneBlue.
* Reset padding and list-style-image on ul#mw-echo-special-container
ourselves, do not rely on the skin doing it
* Use transparent background on .mw-echo-notification (and
semi-transparent black on hover) instead of solid white and
light grey to accomodate colored skin backgrounds

wgUserNewMsgRevisionId is null with only one revision and that revision is
not viewed, this makes it not reliable for determining if there is new
message. We just switch to check against $user->getNewtalk() instead.
We can still use wgUserNewMsgRevisionId to generate diff links if desired
Change-Id: I4cf50a944aada03151bd17f3610bd59b3bfb2bf2
separate into multiple ul elements with headings dividing them
This removes need for unnecessary styling rules in mobile web

* Add missing spaces after 'function'
* Remove underscores from identifiers
* Don't use typeof for undefined with local variables and object properties
* API ok/err is deprecated since MediaWiki 1.20 (< 1.22-alpha), use .done and .fail

When I changed mw.echo.special.initialize to be called as a
callback from $( document ).ready(), rather than being called
explicitly from the closure, it changed the context, which got
assigned to _this. This broke some of the function calls.

If link underlining is on, then the number in the badge
will be underlined. This is probably never needed, even
if the user wants to underline regular links.
Set text-decoration to none in all cases.

This provides some rudimentary styling support to make Echo usable
with the Modern skin.
It also fixes the Notifications special page so it is styled
correctly in Modern, CologneBlue, or with Javascript turned off.
Also some more tweaks for Monobook skin.
Retiring the 'feedback' link from the special page, per PM.

Brought up by Krinkle in Icebfe86b (PS4):
* 'ok' and 'err' properties of Api are deprecated, use promise interface
* Use 'api' instead of 'Api'
* $( '<a>' ) instead of $( '<a/>' )
* Expected space after 'function' keyword

With this change we will no longer be relying on JS for the badge
functionality. This will prevent the flash of unstyled content,
and allow wikis to locally override the styling (since the unread
class is now applied immediately).
I also went ahead and made the badge styling more closely match the
talk page message alert styling per Vibha.
Also removed the old full link optional behavior since we weren't
using it, and it would have been a pain to maintain.

Making monobook's text-transform not apply to notification flyout.
Unfortunately, 2 overrides are needed since the monobook selector
is applied weakly to the overlay in general (as an inherited style)
and strongly to the notifications themselves (since they're in a ul)

When there are more new notifications than can fit in the overly
it shows a message in the header alerting the user. This message
should be in regular text, while 'Notifications' should stay bold.
Changed per Fabrice.
Change-Id: I21dc0ed516e5656c6d1965970d7a5f313e317aa9
Button is only shown if there are more unread notifications than
fit in the overlay.
To avoid performance issues, this version only works for cases where
the number of unread notifications is less than the maximum count
(99 currently). Otherwise the button to mark all as read isn't
displayed (it's also limited on the server-side for good measure).
Bug: 47092
Change-Id: Ifcb0a436e2b31062741c441cca239d35ddefa0e1
Changing highlighting behavior for archive. Now unread notifications
are highlighted with bold text in the archive rather than with a
background color.
Bug: 47149
Change-Id: I03b2a2968db6d067041c2618c5b4f878d8dc548f
Having two links to the archive page is redundant and the meaning
of the title as a header for the list is lost.

This is replacing the implementation I did for 'html-light'.
The reason html-light doesn't work is that we don't have any way
of reliably determining which parameter should be the one that is
linked to in the notification title (flyout notifications are only
supposed to have one link). With this system, the notification
definer can specify a separate message/params combination to use
specifically for the notification flyout. If they don't specify
these, it falls back to the normal title message/params.

1. EchoNotificationController::resetNotificationCount() does not reset count, it has misleading name (should fix the name in another patch)
2. Prevent multiple concurrent API calls resulting from multiple clicks on more link within very short amount of time

Payload components can include edit summary, edit snippet, welcome message.
This replaces the older 'content' system which constructed a payload
from an arbitrary message + parameters (but only supported a single
message).
Change-Id: I9a5e1d69f0c8296bb2bb79cb3f26e67aa34592bb
* Supports 'undo' and 'rollback' currently
* Also includes adding the edit summary used to all edit notifications.
* Also fixes a minor bug that made it seem like all EchoNotificationJobs were failing.
* Added revert icon to CSS
Change-Id: Id22470107b071cdbce33da7cf3dfd09d22947644
Basically having fun with the code analyzer.
Also:
* remove unused local variable assignments
* missing return values
* CSS optimizations.
* Initialize possible unset variables.

* Instead of creating a new div, replaced the content of EVERY SINGLE DIV ON THE PAGE when a user had no notifications.
* Added some styling to make title and link prettier.

Add a title and a link to Special:Notifications to the notifications overlay.
Also add a message to Special:Notifications and the overlay if a user has no notifications
Change-Id: I28407d3ea82039b160170f51ab987418e14be2af
This version is very rough.
For an example set of Minimum Releasable Functionality, this version will notify users on
changes to their watchlists or to their user talk pages.
However, it is still missing a conversion script to turn watchlists into echo subscriptions.
For now, notifications can be viewed through the new special page Special:Notifications, or through the API module provided.
