There are 3 failures, which I think are attributable to the fact that
I'm not emitting events from the when the selection tail changes, and
I'm not emitting redundant events when the head is changed to the
same position it was previously, whereas before I wasn't guarding
against redundant events.
This is needed by the snippets package, which needs to know where the
cursor was previously when it moves to decide whether to cancel the
current snippet.
This is used by cursor to only autoscroll when the marker head is
explicitly moved, so that passive movements caused by buffer insertions
don't trigger autoscrolling.
If we pass an explicit autoscroll option when selection, we don't want
to autoscroll the cursor. If the option is true, we'll autoscroll to
the middle of the selection. If the option is false, we don't want any
autoscrolling, including to the cursor. The cursor should only autoscroll
when the option is undefined.
Destroying the cursor will cause a redraw, which causes a problem when
we execute it synchronously in specs because destroying the cursor also
destroys the marker associated with the selection. Here we remove the
selection first to avoid this problem.
Previously the paths were first loaded when the fuzzy finder
view was first attached.
Now a web worker is started when the package activates that
sets the paths on the fuzzy finder view the first time it
displays if the worker has completed by the time an event occurs
that displays the view.
Whereas marker methods on buffer take for granted that everything is
in buffer coordinates, methods on the DisplayBuffer offer both
screen and buffer coordinate versions of the marker API.
A "marker" is basically like a persistent selection/cursor composite,
having a head and a tail. The "head" is like the cursor in a selection,
and the "tail" is like the part of the selection that doesn't move. My
goal is for markers to be the only construct used to track regions
in the buffer. I want to replace anchors with them.
