-----------------------------------------

GitHub user benkeen opened a pull request:

    https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/pull/141

    Create generic Tray component

    This moves a lot of the logic from the individual trays (Add Database,
    Query Options, API Url) and into a generic Tray component.
    
    *** Note: the trays should function exactly as before. ***
    
    Closes COUCHDB-2401

> Now we've moved most content to trays, the code can really be cleaned up. Create a generic Tray component that contains all boilerplate code, like hide/show/toggle, etc.
> Right now we're explicitly telling other components to do things, like in the Query Options / API Bar that tell eachother to close if they're about to be opened: 
> FauxtonAPI.Events.trigger("APIbar:closeTray");
> Now that the Add New Database is going to be a tray as well, I'd like to improve this. Namely, all of them would publish the same events:
> FauxtonAPI.Events.trigger("Tray:open"); // this would actually be a constant, like C.EVENT.TRAY.OPEN
> FauxtonAPI.Events.trigger("Tray:close"); // C.EVENT.TRAY.CLOSE
> They would then use that to subscribe to ANY tray's open event, and know to close itself if another's being opened. The benefits are that a component doesn't need to know about other components (loose coupling yay). And going forth it would mean less code.
