= and - nudge the control last moved by a hundredth of its travel; the
framing sliders, perspective included, now count as "last moved", so R puts
them back as well. J turns the selected mask part's join chip.

Grid: Ctrl+D and Ctrl+Shift+A clear the selection, = and - resize the
thumbnails, Ctrl+K opens keywording, and Flag in the selection bar gives
pick and reject a pointer and touch route. Sidebar: Enter commits a
collection's name, and Enter or Escape hands the keyboard back to the grid,
where it used to go nowhere until something was clicked. People: Up and Down
walk the rail, F2 puts the name field under the keys, and Escape or Back now
leave the screen the way its back button does instead of doing nothing.
Sheets: Enter does what the export or copy sheet's button does.

The choices follow Lightroom where it has one. No new key steals typing: the
grid's and People's keys live on focus holders that are not ancestors of any
text field, and the sheets' Enter comes after a focused field has had it.
Every binding is tagged beside its handler, and the gate added in the
previous commit holds the two to each other.

There is no wheel on a tablet, so without the pinch the cell size could only be changed by a control a finger cannot reach.

A tap opens; a tap that *moved* does not. Travel is what separates a deliberate tap from a hand brushing past, and it is the only thing that does: the two are the same length. An earlier version required the finger to dwell 120 ms instead, and that rejected ordinary taps — a real tap is often quicker than a brush.

A folded burst draws its earliest frame, which is a fact about the clock and not a judgement about the photograph — nothing in this application ranks a frame (FR-CULL-5). But the point of a burst is that one of the twelve is better than the other eleven, and the photographer is the only one who knows which. So the choice is offered on the frames themselves, while they are open and side by side, which is the one moment the alternatives are on screen to be compared.
