* The symmetrize operation makes the input mesh elements symmetrical,
but unlike mirroring it only copies in one direction. The edges and
faces that cross the plane of symmetry are split as needed to
enforce symmetry.
* The symmetrize operator can be controlled with the "direction"
property, which combines the choices of symmetry plane and
positive-negative/negative-positive. The enum for this is
BMO_SymmDirection.
* Added menu items in the top-level Mesh menu and the WKEY specials
menu.

That was an old check whether tiled EXRs are used during rendering
since version 2.42 where there indeed was a special check for tile
size in EXR tile code.
Now it seems EXR could handle tiles with non-equal size and no
extra tile size check happens for EXR. Anyway EXR tile initialization
happens after initparts, so clamping size in initparts should be
safe for EXR tiles as well.
This operator used to be called "Jump to Frame". It basically takes the midpoint
(frame number and/or value) of selected keyframes, and positions the current
frame (or2d-cursor in Graph Editor) at this point.
The hotkey for this is now Ctrl-G (i.e. as it's similar to a "Goto Frame"
feature). It is also now in the Key menu instead of in the relatively obscure
View menu, even though it doesn't actually result in any keyframe edits taking
place.
(Also, fixed a typo/grammer issue with one of Remove Bone Group operator)
check if the object is already parented to said deformer before trying to add a
new modifier
This should help reduce the number of cases where users inadvertantly end up
creating multiple deform modifiers pointing to the same object, which has been
known to be a cause of "double-transform" artifacts.
Note that this is only able to detect these cases by checking if the parent
object is selected, so this will only really work for the Ctrl-P shortcut where
you have to select both objects first. However, it shouldn't be a problem either
in the Outliner (drag and drop), as the object probably won't be a child of its
parent already if you're doing this.
modifiers now
This makes it harder for users to unwittingly create multiple deform modifiers
by parenting and unparenting a number of times, with the net result being that
"Clear Parent" is now the true inverse operation of "Make Parent".
The Ctrl-G menu for managing Bone Groups has always been a bit clunky,
especially when compared to the Hooks menu (Ctrl-H). This was because the old
menu was more data-orientated (Bone Group Management, Membership to these
groups) whereas this new arrangement should be a bit more task-orientated (Add
to new group, Add to active group, Remove from all groups, Remove active group).
Alt+V will fill the area inbetween the ripped faces - a bit like extrude.
faces are flipped to match existing geometry and customdata (uv, vcols etc) is copied from surrounding geometry too.
