[Stefano Verzegnassi <stefano92.100@xxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge lp:~verzegnassi-stefano/ubuntu-terminal-app/device-detection into lp:ubuntu-terminal-app has been updated.

Description changed to:

*** REQUIRES OTA-10 ***

Added a context property which allows terminal-app to know whether a keyboard or a mouse is attached to the device.

This is required to workaround a gap in the Ubuntu UI Toolkit, which makes impossible to use some of the new convergence features (e.g. bottom edge) in desktop mode.
This also allows us to automatically hide some components which are only useful in a context where only a touchscreen is available as input device.

Hopefully, this patch shouldn't be required anymore with OTA-11, when the support for devices detection will be available through UITK.
