#112064 by Dave Cohen and pwolanin: do not cache installer redirects, so live Drupal pages will be visible instead of cached installer pages

#173566 by bjaspan: remove db_update_field(), because it can easily be used for evil (and mostly nothing else). We should not let contributed modules to easily break their database.

#173227 by Desbeers: make language listing work early in the bootstrap, when modules are not yet loaded (fix a regression from a previous patch)

#164451 by several people: Right to left (RTL) CSS styles for Garland, so Drupal can even be installed in RTL form from the start

#164451 by several people: rtl collapsed menu image (in anticipation of a Garland RTL enabler patch soon)

#173274 by Desbeers: treat <front> as the empty path, when adding path prefixes, so we get the proper result

#173314 by drewish: mark previously uploaded files as permanent, so they will not be deleted after an upgrade

#163361 by dvessel: fix hidden textareas in Opera and remove gap between textarea and grippie in Firefox/Safari

#172791 by dmitrig01: fix notices when contact page is called, but contact module is not configured yet

#109829 by doq: do not trim URLs is the added ellipses would result in a longer link title then the original URL itself

#171646 by JirkaRybka: store version usage information for every source string, optimize caching and prune the initially unused strings

#6162 by various people: actually point new anchors to the page the first new comment is displayed (in a multipage comment view)
