+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] online-accounts: Track the lifecycle of CcGoaPanel across
+ async calls
+
+Due to an API bug in GNOME Online Accounts, the asynchronous
+goa_provider_get_all method doesn't accept a GCancellable argument.
+This makes it difficult to cancel an ongoing call when the CcGoaPanel
+gets destroyed.
+
+Prior to commit c26f8ae018900a55, this was hacked around by taking a
+reference on the panel for the duration of the call. Instead of
+cancelling a pending call on destruction, it would keep the panel alive
+until the call was over. However, that was lost during commit
+c26f8ae018900a55.
+
+One thing to bear in mind is that GtkWidgets, CcGoaPanel is one, can
+be destroyed by a gtk_widget_destroy call, which is subtly different
+than a simple sequence of g_object_unref calls. When gtk_widget_destroy
+is used, it invokes the GObject::dispose virtual method of the widget.
+It is expected this will cause anything holding a reference to this
+widget to drop their references, leading to GObject::finalize being
+called. However, there is no guarantee that this will happen in the
+same iteration of the GMainLoop. Therefore, it is possible that when
+the goa_provider_get_all call finishes, the CcGoaPanel might be in a
+disposed, but not yet finalized state.
+
+When a GObject is in a disposed-but-not-finalized state, only a very
+limited number of operations can be performed on it. Its reference
+count can be altered, the memory used by the instance struct can be
+accessed, but none of the member GObjects can be assumed to be valid.
+eg., it's definitely illegal to add new rows to the member GtkListBox.
+Hence a boolean flag is used to mark the destroyed state of the panel.
+
+This second part is a small improvement over the earlier hack.
