There appears to be no way to make `on-demand' work right for the
Unity window manager's global menu bar, since there's no notificiation
when the menu bar is clicked. We approximate the correct behavior
by calling `on-demand' when a containing frame loses the keyboard
focus, which might be because the menu bar was clicked; that may be
too late (because the menu has already been shown), but it should
work most of the time.
Closes PR 13347.
Relevant to PR 13395, but DrRacket will have to change to work

A page-setup dialog is now available on all platforms, which means

note that `end-doc' normally shows a (different) dialog.
This instructs the adventurer on how to take screen shots using the

`collects/scribblings/gui/image'.
There are also two scripts that might help automate this process.
It's very helpful to have a visual aid when dealing with a graphical
interface toolkit.
This patch adds an overview of the widgets available in the library
consisting of screen shots of the main ones and the snippets used to
produce them.
Each widget image link back to the full documentation.
Changed `open-output-text-editor' to put its additions into
an edit sequence to better work with threads.
Fixed problems in editor-canvas refresh and resize events, where
the editor's refresh synchronization wasn't used properly.
Fixed race conditions in the the protocol that is used to separate
refreshes and edit sequences.

Since the number of monitors can change at any time, reliable
use of these functions requires handling failure in some way.
Handling #f results is easier (and less likely to mask other
problems) than catching exceptions.
