+ block_list() (in block.module): returns an array of block objects for
$region.
+ theme_blocks() (in theme.inc): uses block_list() and theme("block") to
actually render them.
Advantages:
+ Decouples blocks content and layout, allows block_list() to be used
for non-output purposes (think "pull").
+ Unifies naming in theme.inc: render_blocks()) didn't really fit there.
+ Puts block_list() in blocks.module where it logically belongs.
- Removed some cruft from the Xtemplate theme. Patch by Ax.
* Made all theme functions return their output.
* Removed sidebar configuration options. (Sidebar placement is not configured
through the block configuration screen.)
Some TODO's:
* The sidebars of theme Marvin and theme UnConeD look unstyled.
* CSS-ify theme UnConeD so we can remove the class around the functions.
* Rewrite theme_init() not to use a class and simplify theme()
accordingly.
- Improvement: removed a left-over from Drupal 4.2.0 (dead code).
- Improvement: replaced hard-coded XHTML around the XML icons with class="xml-icon".
- Improvement: removed the custom navigation menus shown at the top of the "user information page" and integrated them in the new navigation block. The "my account" link in the navigation menu will unfold. Also removed the "delete account" link/functionality (for now).
- Improvement: fix for "magic quotes" settings. Patch by Steven. I also removed check_php_settings().
- Improvement: block themability improvements. Modified patch from Ax and Steve/CodeMonkeyX.

to avoid XSS attacks! Patch by Al, Moshe, Marco, Kjartan and me.
- Bugfix: the admin module does now import drupal.css prior to admin.css.
Patch by me.
- Bugfix: the admin module was still emitting a <base href=""> tag. I
removed this as it is been taken care of by theme_head(); Patch by me.
- Bugfix: made the tracker module's pager only consider published pages.
Patch by Moshe.

- Xtemplate improvements: changed the color of the selected day in the
archive module's calendar. Patch by Al.
- Usability improvements: made the "birthday" field of the profile module

------
- TODO: it might be a good idea to emit the following meta tag in the
theme_head() function:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
Currently, some themes (and modules!) emit this while others don't. This
would also make it possible to change the charset site-wide.
- TODO: now we added support for td.dark and td.light to drupal.css, maybe
it can be removed from admin.css as well as xtemplate.css?
- Removed all instances of '$user->nodes'.
- Committed Moshe's taxonomy patch - minus the node_compact_list() bit. It needs a bit more thought/work. This patch changes the links of taxonomy pages/feeds so update your custom code and themes accordingly!
Themes should now use "taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node)" to get an array of taxonomy term links. The old construct is deprecated and should be changed.
// old theme blob:
if (function_exists("taxonomy_node_get_terms")) {
foreach (taxonomy_node_get_terms($node->nid) as $term) {
$terms[] = l($term->name, NULL, array(), "or=$term->tid");
}
}
// new theme blob:
if (module_exist("taxonomy")) {
$terms = taxonomy_link("taxonomy terms", $node);
}
// old URL:
http://foo.com/index.php?or=1,2
// new URL:
http://foo.com/?q=taxonomy/page/or/1,2
- Bad usage of css ID's: they may be used for a single element only,
but were used as #node, #block, which can occur multiple times in a
single page.
- Moved HTML from theme to template - thats what templates are all
about!
- Added support for head() hook
- Added support for diffentiating between boxes and blocks.
- Typo: secundary -> secondary
