	* thunar/thunar-file.{c,h}: Add wrapper method thunar_file_get_for_uri()
	  which is a rather common operation.
	* thunar/thunar-dbus-service.c
	  (thunar_dbus_service_parse_uri_and_display): Use the newly added
	  method thunar_file_get_for_uri().
	* thunar/thunar-launcher.c: If no current directory is set, directories
	  will always be opened in new windows.
	* thunar/thunar-renamer-progress.{c,h}: Add support for explicit
	  cancellation of the rename operation.
	* thunar/thunar-renamer-dialog-ui.xml,thunar/thunar-renamer-model.{c,h},
	  thunar/thunar-renamer-dialog.{c,h}, thunar/Makefile.am: Some polish on
	  the dialog and the model. Allow users to add/remove files using the
	  context menu. Add a standalone mode in which the bulk rename dialog
	  appears as standalone application and which can be invoked through the
	  D-BUS service. Bug #1597.
	* thunar/thunar-standard-view.c(thunar_standard_view_action_rename):
	  Keep up with the ThunarRenamerDialog changes.
	* thunar/main.c, thunar/thunar-application.{c,h},
	  thunar/thunar-dbus-client.{c,h}, thunar/thunar-dbus-service-infos.xml,
	  thunar/thunar-dbus-service.c: Add BulkRename() method to the D-BUS
	  interface org.xfce.Thunar and add command line option -B to Thunar,
	  which allows to open the bulk rename dialog directly. Bug #1597.
	* Thunar-folder-handler.desktop.in.in, Thunar.desktop.in.in,
	  Makefile.am: Rearrange the .desktop file handling.
	* Makefile.am, Thunar-bulk-rename.desktop.in.in, ThunarBulkRename.in:
	  Add launcher for the bulk rename utility. Bug #1597.
	* examples/thunar-file-manager.py, examples/Makefile.am: Add example
	  for the usage of the org.xfce.Thunar interface.
	* thunarx/thunarx-renamer.{c,h}, thunarx/thunarx.symbols: Add new method
	  get_actions() to ThunarxRenamer, as discussed with Jannis, to allow
	  plugin writers to add custom actions to the renamers tree view
	  context menu (i.e. "Edit Tags" for the thunar-media-tag-plugin). First
	  part of bug #1602.
	* docs/reference/thunarx/: Update the API docs.
	* thunar/thunar-renamer-dialog.c(thunar_renamer_dialog_context_menu),
	  thunar/thunar-renamer-dialog-ui.xml: Add custom actions provided by
	  the active ThunarxRenamer to the file context menu in the renamer
	  dialog. Second part of bug #1602.
	* po/POTFILES.in: Add new files.
	* po/Thunar.pot, po/*.po: Merge new strings.
	* po/de.po: Update german translations.

+# Simple example of how to communicate with Thunar using the   #
+# org.xfce.Thunar D-BUS interface.                             #
+#                                                              #
+# Thunar must be compiled with D-BUS support for this to work. #
+# ------------------------------------------------------------ #
+
+import gtk
+import dbus
+import dbus.service
+if getattr(dbus, 'version', (0,0,0)) >= (0,41,0):
+  import dbus.glib
+
+# acquire a reference to the Thunar object
+bus = dbus.SessionBus()
+thunar_object = bus.get_object('org.xfce.Thunar', '/org/xfce/FileManager')
+thunar = dbus.Interface(thunar_object, 'org.xfce.Thunar')
+
+# You can now invoke methods on the thunar object, for
+# example, to terminate a running Thunar instance (just
+# like Thunar -q), you can use:
+#
+# thunar.Terminate()
+#
+# or, if you want to open the bulk rename dialog in the
+# standalone version with an empty file list and /tmp
+# as default folder for the "Add Files" dialog, use:
+#
+# thunar.BulkRename('/tmp', [], True, '')
+#
+# See the thunar-dbus-service-infos.xml file for the exact
+# interface definition.
+#
+
+# We just popup the bulk rename dialog to
+# demonstrate that it works. ;-)
