-Print all three kernels in EmberRender when the --dump_kernel option is specified.
-Apply variations filter to randoms.
--Bug fixes
-Fix bug where hue was not being preserved when switching controllers and embers. Very hard to repro bug, but mostly overcome by eliminating hue as a saved parameter.
--Code changes
-De-templatized DEOpenCLKernelCreator and FinalAccumOpenCLKernelCreator. They now just take a bool as a parameter to specify double precision.
-To accommodate the buffers being float, introduce a new #define types in EmberCL called real4_bucket, and real4reals_bucket.

-Add export statements to FractoriumInfo.cpp.
-Remove image parameter from SetPaletteTableItem(), it was a bad design.
-InitToolbarUI() is now empty since toolbar initialization happens automatically. Leave as a placeholder.

Allow for setting rendering thread priorities from the command line and final render dialog. Currently only implemented on Windows.
Show estimated time left on the final render dialog.
Sort palette list by name, instead of by index in the palette file.
Sorting can be flipped by clicking the column headers of the palette table.
--Code changes
Remove unnecessary connect() statement in Variations tab.
Add the ability to click the right mouse button and drag to adjust values in spinners.
Filling the palette controls will now also select the proper palette filename (if not empty) in the combo box.
Allow for toggling row and column of affine tables.
--Bug fixes
Fix tab tool tips again.
Fix palette list switching.
--Code changes
Palettes now keep the filename they originated from as a member.

Update tool tips accordingly.
--Bug fixes
Fix NAN in equalized weight calculation when all weights are set to 0.
--Code changes
Clean up strange nested usage of Update([&]()) calls when changing xform color index via either the spinner or scroll bar. Made no sense.
Make ISAAC RandBit() use RandByte() to be slightly more efficient.
Put FillXforms() in the controller where it belongs, rather than the main window class.
Add UpdateXform() function to the controller to handle applying operations to multiple xforms.
Remove the word "Current" out of most xform related functions because they now operate on whatever is selected.
Properly use Update() for various xform operations whereas before it was manually calling UpdateRender().
Also properly use Update() in places where it was erroneously using UpdateXform() for things that did not involve xforms.
Block signals in FillXaosTable().
Add new file named FractoriumXformsSelect.cpp to handle new xform selection code.
Make xaos display a matrix rather than a single column. This will be moved out into its own tab since it's no longer xform dependent, but that will be in a future commit.
Remove xaos from/to button since it's no longer applicable.
Add test function to Isaac to return just one random byte. Might be used in the future.
Change PaletteList Count() member to Size() to be consistent with other code.
Remove PaletteImage option, it's unused. Improve documentation for some other options.
Make ComposePath() always return a unique string.
Add Random Palette and Random Adjustment buttons.
Another attempt at solving the locale bug with the affine adjustment combo boxes.
