Since the sensitivity of the display menu-check-items depends on show_hint,
we need to call virt_viewer_app_update_menu_displays on show_hint change.

This fixes the following scenario:
1) Linux guest with upto 4 displays on a single qxl dev
2) Configure it for 2 displays
3) Switch to a text-console in the guest (ie send ctrl+alt+F3)
4) All displays except for disp 1 are now not sensitve in the menu
5) Switch back to X
6) The second display in the view->displays menu is still not sensitive

This means that in this situation none of the signals where we call
virt_viewer_app_update_menu_displays fired, is that intentional?

Yes, the current code calls virt_viewer_app_update_menu_displays whenever
displays get added enabled/disabled / shown/hidden, etc. But the hint
which gets used by virt_viewer_app_update_menu_displays to determine
whether a display menu is sensitive in this case gets cleared/set from
within the guest.

Or is notify::show-hint precisely the signal that is fired in this
situation?

Yes, since a display going from not-ready to ready by the guest changes
the hints.

If this is the case your patch makes total sense to me, ACK

Thanks, pushed.

Regards,

Hans
