dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 e0da93c59a Reword FR-RAW-2's mechanism to the one that serves its purpose
FR-RAW-2 required RAW decoding to sit behind "a trait taking a SourceRef, not a
filesystem path". The purpose is met — `dr_decode::decode` takes `&[u8]` and
the crate has no path-based entry point anywhere — and the mechanism is not,
because a decoder taking a SourceRef would be a worse design than the one built.

A SourceRef is opaque. The only thing that turns one into bytes is `Storage`,
which lives in platform/dr-plat, so a decoder taking a SourceRef must take a
Storage with it: retry, permission loss and remote fetching move inside the
decoder, and the decoder becomes constructible only where a Storage exists.
Bytes in, image out, is narrower and more portable — the decoder cannot know
where its input came from, which is the property the requirement wants.

The Nextcloud case is the one a byte-oriented API looks like it should lose,
and it is the clearest illustration that it does not. `dr_decode::HEADER_BYTES`
declares how much of a file the decoder needs in order to read metadata, and
`import.rs` fetches exactly that range through `Storage::read_range` before
calling `dr_decode::metadata`. The decoder states a requirement; the storage
layer satisfies it. A decoder holding its own SourceRef would have had to carry
the range policy itself.

The trait half of the clause is left standing and unmet. There is one decoder
reached through free functions, so "a second implementation may be added
without changing callers" is still outstanding work rather than a description.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 11e515a295 Say which state NFR-P11 forbids losing, since one kind is dropped on purpose
NFR-P11's criterion was "no dropped frames, no state loss" across a layout
class transition. Read literally, the interface already fails it, and fails it
by design: `apply_layout_class` clears the user's panel open/closed choices
whenever the class changes, and `PanelChoices` documents why — a choice made in
landscape answers a different question from the one portrait asks, and carrying
it across leaves a 232 px sidebar on a screen with no room for it.

A requirement that the code deliberately contradicts is worse than no
requirement, because the next person to read it either "fixes" the behaviour or
learns to discount the register.

So the criterion now names what must survive — the open image and version, the
selection, scroll position, the in-progress edit and its undo history, the
current mode — and states the exemption with the reasoning attached. Panel
disclosure is a default re-derived per class, not state; the user's
disagreement with it is remembered within the class where it was expressed.

The intent is unchanged: a resize must not cost the photographer anything they
did. It is now possible to write a test for that.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 99f9b5b7c5 Strike R5's tiling clauses, which the frame budget argues against
R5 asks that the application work on downscaled proxies for display, and its
criterion stated that in two parts: the display pipeline operates at viewport
resolution, and only visible tiles are computed with panning recomputing only
newly exposed ones. The first is built and pixel-equality tested. The second is
not, and should not be.

This is the same correction FR-DSP-2 already received, applied to the
requirement that FR-DSP-2's tiling clause traces back to. frame-budget.md
measured the case tiling exists for: recomputing the whole 4K viewport costs
4.5 ms of a 16 ms budget, so a perfect tile cache could save at most 4.5 ms in
exchange for a cache keyed by (VersionId, tile, zoom, graph_hash_prefix) that
must stay correct across every parameter change in the graph.

For the one stage that does exceed the budget it is worse than useless. That
stage is a convolution, and a tiled convolution reads a halo per tile: at the
52 px radius measured at 4K, 256 px tiles read (256+104)² taps instead of 256².

The intent is not removed — a display path that does work proportional to the
source image is still forbidden, and that is what the remaining clause says.
What is removed is a mechanism written in as though it were the only way to
get there, and which measurement says is the wrong one.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 e22945a62d Tag the colour-independent status that was already built and unrecorded
NFR-A11Y-3 — no status conveyed by hue alone — read as untagged, and
outstanding.md said "no compliance work found". Both were wrong. Five places
already implement it, and four of them name the requirement in a comment
explaining the design; what none of them had was a TRACES line.

- `histogram.rs::percentage` states clipping as a figure and keeps `<0.1%`
  distinct from `0%`, so the text cannot say "none" while the marker beside it
  is lit.
- `histogram.slint`'s ClipReadout is the other half: a marker that appears and
  disappears rather than changing tint, and the figure next to it. Either alone
  reads.
- `library.slint`'s star strip is a solid star against an outline, differing in
  shape and luminance, over an achromatic palette.
- `library.slint`'s FlagMark is a tick against a cross, and a reject also dims
  its whole cell.
- `peaking.slint`'s colour chips say "Red" and "Cyan". A control for choosing
  between hues, presented only as hues, is unusable by exactly the person most
  likely to need it.

The tag is honest about being wider than the evidence, and outstanding.md now
records both gaps. Only the clipping clause has a test that would fail if the
behaviour were removed; the three Slint components are argued rather than
asserted. And the requirement's first named example — catalog colour labels —
has no interface at all: `label` is a nullable column nothing writes or shows.
That clause is untestable rather than satisfied, and closes when the label UI
is built with a shape from the start.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 62e585844a Untag FR-PLAT-AND-1 from the two places that record its absence
FR-PLAT-AND-1 requires that library access on Android be obtained exclusively
through the Storage Access Framework — a tree granted with
ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE, persisted with takePersistableUriPermission,
enumerated with DocumentsContract. None of those three appears anywhere.

What carried the tag was a type and a negation.

`SourceRef::Document` is the variant a SAF library would use, and nothing
outside `#[cfg(test)]` constructs one. `LocalStorage` matches on it only to
return `Unsupported`, under a test called
`a_reference_of_the_wrong_kind_is_refused_rather_than_guessed_at`. The variant
is a good design — it is what keeps a path out of the core API — but it is
`FR-CAT-1a`'s claim, and `FR-CAT-1a` is still tagged there.

`imports_supported()` is the sharper case: it returns false on Android, and its
doc comment explains at length that it stops being false when a SAF
implementation lands. A function whose documented purpose is to say "this
platform cannot do this yet" was being counted as evidence that the platform
can.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 421a47f1eb Untag FR-CAT-13, which no XMP is read or written to satisfy
FR-CAT-13 asks for standard XMP sidecars read and written — ratings, colour
labels, keywords and hierarchical subjects, title, description, copyright, GPS,
in `xmp:`/`dc:`/`lr:` schemas — so that other tools interoperate. Its one tag
was the module header of `dr-catalog/src/keywords.rs`.

That module stores keywords in SQLite. It names `dc:subject` twice, both times
in prose explaining why a keyword's text is the fact rather than its row id,
which is a good reason to have written it that way and not evidence of an XMP
implementation. Nothing in the tree parses or emits XMP: `dr-export`'s metadata
module writes EXIF and says in its own header that IPTC and XMP are named by
FR-EXP-8 and neither is read.

`dr-preset-xmp` is the crate whose name most invites the mistake. It reads
Lightroom `.xmp` *presets* — develop settings — under FR-DEV-6, and knows
nothing about the metadata schemas FR-CAT-13 is about.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 0906c3983f Stop reading a coverage calculation as a diagnostics subsystem
NFR-OPS-1 asks for structured levelled logging to a rotating, size-capped
on-disk log in the XDG state or Android app directory, automatic redaction of
credentials and tokens, and a one-click diagnostics bundle with an explicit
preview-and-consent step. Its two tags were on `compute_coverage` and on the
traceability tool's gesture extractor.

Neither is diagnostics under any reading. One computes a ratio and the other
generates a markdown document; neither writes a log, and no rotating on-disk
log exists anywhere in the tree — logging goes to stderr and to logcat.

These were real tags, not the fixtures the extractor was just taught to
ignore, which makes them the more instructive case: the tool was correct and
the tags were wrong. NFR-OPS-1 is untagged again, and outstanding.md §9 now
says what is actually missing rather than that the requirement is covered.

`gestures.rs` keeps its FR-UI-4 tag, which is a separate claim and unaffected.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 9d9abb227f Ask where a TRACES tag sits, so the tool stops tagging its own fixtures
The traceability tool scans `tools/`, which is its own source, and a line was
taken for a tag whenever `TRACES:` appeared anywhere on it. Its unit-test
fixtures are therefore tags. R1 — cross-platform output within a bounded
tolerance, the requirement with no acceptance criterion at all — was reported
implemented on the strength of two string literals in
`context_looks_forward_then_backward`.

R1 was only the visible case because it had no other coverage. The same
fixtures also contributed sites to FR-CAT-1, FR-CAT-2 and NFR-P1, `gestures.rs`
contributed one to FR-UI-4 from a `push_str`, and `dr-pipeline/build.rs`
contributed FR-DEV-3a and FR-DEV-3c from the tag it *emits* into generated
code. Those four requirements keep real tags elsewhere, so nothing but noise is
lost by dropping them.

The rule is about position, not about string literals. It cannot be about
string literals: `schema.rs` writes six genuine tags inside Rust string
literals, because the SQL it embeds is commented with `--`, and an extractor
that refused those would lose more than it saved. What separates the two is
where on the line the tag is. A tag written to be read is the first word of its
comment; a tag quoted inside an expression never is. So `tag_body` asks for a
comment opener at the start of the line and `TRACES:` immediately after it.

That closes every shape but one: a multi-line literal whose lines really do
begin with `///`, which no line-oriented reader can tell from source. There is
one such fixture and its ids are now UT and IT, which `is_requirement` already
excludes from coverage — the mechanism existed and was simply never used on
the tool itself. `this_crates_own_fixtures_cannot_reach_the_register` enforces
that: any requirement id below `mod tests` in this crate fails the test and
says to use a UT- or IT- id instead. Tagging the tool's real code is still
allowed.

On `SOURCE_SUFFIXES`, which cannot reach `AndroidManifest.xml`, the Flatpak
manifest, the Dockerfile or the CI workflows: it is deliberately left alone,
and the reasoning is recorded beside it. A tag on a manifest asserts that a
comment exists next to a line nothing checks, which is the weak form
CONTRIBUTING.md warns about. The convention already in the tree — a Rust test
that `include_str!`s the file and asserts what must be in it, with the tag on
the test — is what a tag is supposed to mean.

Crop, Local and Repair were chips at the head of the develop column, sharing a
row with the adjustment groups and told apart from them by the shape of their
highlight. Three things followed from that, and only the last is cosmetic: the
column closes, so the way out of a mode went away with the way in — hence the
duplicate "Done Cropping" over the canvas; the chips are generated from the
operation set, so the widest thing in the sidebar was a row nobody had chosen
the contents of; and a mode and a filter are different kinds of state wearing
one control.

They are a fixed 60px rail down the left now, generated from a single table in
toolrail.slint. A tool is one row of it plus a drawing plus a ViewMode variant;
nothing in app.slint is touched to add one. What is left of the strip is the
group filters, so it is GroupStrip.

The column stops measuring itself. Every panel published a content-width and
declared it as min-width, and the column took the largest — which spent the
photograph's pixels on whatever happened to be widest, and moved the image
sideways when switching tools swapped one set of panels for another. It is
panel-width now, one number in style.yaml.

That number is 360 and it is measured, not picked: the contents report a
minimum of 344 in every mode, and they do not compress below it because a Text
that does not elide reports the same minimum as preferred. 320 was tried and
sliced Paste down the middle. The Flickable's viewport is floored at the
layout's minimum rather than its preferred width for the same reason — content
that is never told how much room it has cannot adapt to having less.

Removing the eight content-width declarations repairs three comments an
earlier edit had spliced sentences into. The raw histogram's note on keeping
its hint short is rewritten rather than dropped: an over-long hint no longer
widens the column, it pushes the column's minimum past the width it has and
clips the panel, which makes that constraint sharper rather than obsolete.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 b120ce48ec Float the selection bar over the grid instead of above it
Selecting the first photograph inserted a 40px row into the view's
vertical flow, so every cell in the grid moved down by it. The act of
selecting shifted the thing being selected out from under the finger —
and a second tap aimed at the neighbour landed on the row below it,
which is the worst possible response to a gesture whose whole job is to
say "this one".

The bar is a floating one now, at the foot of the view. Nothing above it
is re-laid out, so selecting changes what is drawn and never where.

The grid's viewport grows by the same 40px while the bar is there rather
than the Flickable shrinking, which is what keeps that change invisible
too: every cell stays exactly where it was and there is simply further to
scroll, so the last row can be brought clear of the bar instead of being
trapped under it.

It also swallows presses that land on it. A bar floating over the grid is
a bar a thumb can reach for and miss into.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 3b2bb58fa4 Say what these documents describe now, not what they described in August
Three that had drifted past being merely out of date.

`docs/outstanding.md` still marked burst grouping, Flatpak and the Android
cluster as in progress, and described FR-CULL-5 as absent while listing a
forward reference in calibrate.rs that "will need correcting either way" --
it needs correcting now, and differently: the comment claims bursts
bootstrap the face calibration, which is still not what the code does.
FR-PLAT-AND-4 and FR-PLAT-AND-6 are half-met rather than unbuilt, which is
the state most likely to be reported as closed, so each says what is left.
FR-PLAT-LIN-3 is packaged but still unsatisfiable by packaging.

`core/dr-gpu/src/lib.rs` claimed for eight releases to hold "no pipeline, no
tiling, and no masks". It holds masks, segmentation, demosaic, detail, two
histograms and focus peaking. The zero-copy claim it was written to make is
the part still worth making.

`docs/milestone-v0.1.md` was a plan for a milestone delivered long ago and
read as though it were still ahead.

Committed with --no-verify, and the matrix is regenerated separately: the
hook would have scanned another session's uncommitted work in this shared
checkout and written its line numbers into the file.

Three holes, all found by the gate catching itself out.

**Prose that mentions the tag was read as a tag.** `dr-ui`'s module list
carries a comment saying where the generated table comes from, and it
names `GESTURE:` in passing; the scan extracted that sentence fragment as
a gesture with no place and no way to perform it. A tag must now *open*
its comment. A line that merely mentions it is describing the mechanism,
not declaring a member of it, and position is the only thing that tells
the two apart — which also makes the string-literal guard fall out for
free rather than being a special case.

**Neither artefact was regenerated on commit.** They cite line numbers,
so they go stale on anything that moves a line — the sheet commit made
the document wrong about every gesture in `library.slint` without
touching a single one. The pre-commit hook that already keeps the matrix
in step now keeps these too, and unlike the matrix it *fails* rather than
shrugging when the scan does: a matrix that will not build leaves a stale
one in place, where a malformed gesture block means a user about to be
told the wrong thing.

**CI did not check them at all.** It does now, blocking. The matrix is
read; the gesture table is *shown to somebody using the application*, and
a stale one tells them to perform a gesture that no longer exists — from
which they will conclude the application is broken rather than the page.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 1cd5ab6815 Put the gesture reference in the application
The document the previous commit generates is for somebody reading the
repository. The person who needs it most is holding a tablet, has just
discovered that a hold does something, and has nowhere to ask what else
does.

So the same scan writes a table the application draws: a "Gestures"
button beside Settings, a sheet with the same scrim and dismissal as the
ones that file and name, and every gesture grouped by where it applies
with its touch, pointer and keyboard routes side by side. Not the `why` —
that is the argument for the design and belongs in the document; on a
phone-sized card it would bury the one line the sheet was opened to read.

The sheet's file knows nothing about what a gesture is. It draws the rows
it is handed, and the rows come from the generated table, because a help
screen with its text typed into it is a second description of one
behaviour — and the second description is always the one that goes stale.
The commit before this deleted a gesture; a hand-kept sheet would still
be describing it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 df90dd95a2 Merge: a histogram that reads the sensor, beside the one that reads the frame
FR-CULL-3's other two bullets. What existed was a display histogram
tagged FR-DSP-7, counting AdjustPass's 8-bit output with r == 255
clipping counters -- it says a highlight is gone precisely where this
requirement needs it to say the highlight is recoverable.

The new reduction runs over the demosaiced scene-linear texture on a
stops-below-saturation axis: camera-native, unbalanced, unmatrixed,
uncurved, normalised by the sensor's own black and white levels, so 1.0
is saturation by construction. Four series, and the fourth is the
brightest channel rather than luma, because a weighted sum of unbalanced
values is a number about nothing. Cached per photograph, not per frame:
nothing downstream of the demosaic can move a count.

Both readings are legitimate and answer different questions, so the
panel offers a choice rather than replacing one with the other.

ARCH 5.5 is amended to match. It specified a pre-demosaic reduction;
retaining the CFA samples costs 48 MB at 24 MP and 120 MB at 60 MP
resident on every photograph opened, whether or not anyone looks at the
histogram, on the platform ARCH 6.2 exists for. The spec now records two
reductions, why the more complete one was not worth its cost, and what
the cheaper one cannot answer: it counts pixels not photosites, it
cannot see above white, and it is measured after the CFA pattern is gone.

Verified: clippy -D warnings clean, 98 dr-gpu tests, 556 dr-ui tests.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 31a3580f9d Extract the gesture vocabulary from the code that implements it
Every gesture the application has was documented in the comment beside
the `TouchArea` that implements it. Excellent comments, and unreachable
by anyone not reading the source — which is the FR-UI-4 failure in a
different costume: a gesture nobody can find is a feature only its author
knows about.

Writing them out again in a hand-kept help page is the failure this
avoids. Two descriptions of one gesture drift, and it is always the prose
that drifts: the code is exercised every time somebody uses the
application and the page is exercised never. A help screen confidently
describing a double tap the grid stopped honouring last week is worse
than no help screen — and the grid did stop honouring one, in the commit
before this.

So the comment beside the implementation stays the only copy, and a
`GESTURE:` block beside it is scanned into two artefacts: `docs/gestures.md`
for a reader, and a Rust table for the application to draw a help sheet
from. Both committed, both gated, so neither can quietly stop describing
the code.

It lives in the traceability crate because it is the same operation on
the same input — walk the tree, pull structured tags out of comments,
render, fail if the committed artefact has moved. Only the vocabulary is
new. It scans `ui` and `apps` alone: a gesture needs an interface to be
performed on, and excluding `tools` is also what stops the scanner
extracting its own worked examples as broken gestures.

Fifteen gestures so far, across the library grid and the People screen.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 20c368d3fc Give each touch gesture one meaning, and give tap-to-open back
I broke opening a photograph. The dwell added in "Tell a tap on a
photograph from a hand going past" required a finger to stay down 120 ms,
and a deliberate tap is routinely quicker than that — so the grid stopped
opening anything. Duration was the wrong discriminator: a tap and a brush
are the same length.

**Travel is what separates them, and a graze is by definition a moving
contact.** A press now records where it landed and the release compares:
within 12px it is a tap, beyond that the hand was going somewhere else.
No dwell, so no deliberate tap can be refused, and the rule is the same
for a finger and a mouse — one rule instead of two, and the `touch`
argument the dwell needed goes away with it.

Two real conflicts went with it, because a gesture set that overlaps
itself is unlearnable however each half is documented.

**A drag was also a hold.** Grabbing a cell and moving inside 450 ms left
the hold timer armed underneath the drag, so it fired mid-gesture and put
the grid into selection mode nobody asked for — the drag finished into a
mode that changed what every later tap meant. Starting a drag now cancels
it, exactly as a pinch already did.

**A double tap was also a range.** In selection mode two taps on one cell
selected everything back to where selecting began: no visible state, no
warning, from a thing a hand does by accident. "Select to…" does that job
and announces itself first, so the double tap is gone and two taps are
now two toggles that land where they started. `extend_to_row` went with
it — a second range implementation that only the double tap reached,
where every other range goes through `apply_press`.

The resulting vocabulary, one meaning each: tap opens, tap-and-slide does
nothing, hold starts selecting, drag files, two fingers resize, and while
selecting a tap only ever toggles.

dtourolle 4b6c110816 Count the sensor's own numbers, so a cull can see headroom the render hides
FR-CULL-3's remaining two bullets. What existed was a *display* histogram
tagged FR-DSP-7: it binds AdjustPass's Rgba8Unorm output, recovers an 8-bit
code value, and counts clipping as `r == 255`. Its own documentation says a
clipped bin means "a highlight that is actually gone rather than one the
transform might still recover", which is the opposite of what a culling
decision needs. FR-CULL-3 asks for the histogram of the sensor data, on the
explicit grounds that a rendered image "systematically lies about what is
recoverable in the raw", and a readout that measures the render cannot answer
that however it is presented.

So this is a second instrument beside the first rather than a setting on it.
Both are true; they are true about different things; the panel offers both
behind a chip row and the words travel with the numbers, because a raw
saturation figure drawn under a heading saying Highlights would be mislabelled
exactly where the difference matters.

**What is reduced over, and what it cost to decide.** ARCH §5.5 specified the
pre-demosaic CFA samples. This reduces over the demosaiced scene-linear
texture instead, and §5.5 is amended to record the choice rather than let the
specification and the code disagree in silence. The texture is camera-native —
unbalanced, unmatrixed, uncurved — and normalised by the sensor's own black
and white levels, so 1.0 is saturation by construction and the distribution
below it is the headroom question with no calibration to carry. Retaining the
CFA samples would mean keeping the packed u32 buffer Demosaicer::run currently
drops: 48 MB at 24 MP, 120 MB at 60 MP, resident per open photograph whether
or not anyone looks at the histogram, on a platform §6.2 exists because memory
is scarce on.

Three things it therefore cannot say, written into the module docs and into
§5.5 rather than left to be discovered: it counts pixels not photosites, so a
saturated site drags its interpolated neighbours up and per-channel clipping
is smeared by about a demosaic kernel; it cannot see above white, because
demosaic.wgsl clamps each photosite at 1.0 for its own good reasons (a Canon
6D reads to 16383 against a declared 15070) so "at saturation" and "a stop
past it" share a bin; and it is measured after the CFA pattern is gone, so it
can name which colour clipped in the reconstructed image but not which
photosite went first.

The axis is stops below saturation, 16 bins per stop over 256 bins — the same
bin count the display reduction uses, so the fold into drawable columns is
shared and a divergence between the two plots would have to be deliberate. A
linear axis spends half its width on the top stop, which is why nobody has
ever drawn a useful linear raw histogram. The fourth series is the brightest
channel rather than luma: these values are unbalanced, so any weighted sum of
them is a number about nothing, and the brightest channel is the one that
saturates first and so the one the headroom question is actually about.

It is a property of the file and not of the render, which has two
consequences. It is computed once per photograph and cached — nothing
downstream of the demosaic can move a count in it — so a cull does not pay the
display histogram's per-frame cost three thousand times. And it describes the
whole frame rather than the visible region, deliberately opposite to
DevelopSession::histogram: a crop changes what is on screen and changes
nothing about what the sensor recorded.

Tags are on the reduction, the type, its constructor and the presentation
arithmetic, each of which has a test that fails if the behaviour goes. The
Slint panel and the push from lib.rs keep their reasoning as prose: nothing
asserts them, and a tag would claim coverage the assertions are not making.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 2955cad654 Regenerate the matrix over a night's merges
Coverage 59.8% to 67.0% (120/179). Eight of those came from tagging what
was already built; the rest are tonight's features -- FR-CULL-3's peaking
half, FR-CULL-5, FR-PLAT-AND-5.

FR-PLAT-LIN-3 and NFR-COMPAT-2 stay untagged deliberately. Both were
satisfied by a manifest and a document, and there is no source file to
hang a tag on that would fail if the behaviour went away.

This is also the first commit tonight the pre-commit hook has checked.
Every branch used --no-verify, because the hook runs the traceability
build and the branches were under a no-build rule; the matrix each of
them left untouched is regenerated here, once, over all of them.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 5226f7223b Group the frames of one moment, by when they were taken and what they look like
A burst is the commonest thing in a cull and the least interesting: twelve
frames of the same gull at 10 fps occupy twelve cells, are scrolled past
twelve times, and end with the photographer keeping one. FR-CULL-5 asks for
them to collapse to one representative and be judged as a unit.

Two signals, because neither alone survives a real library. Time alone groups
a whole wedding ceremony -- a photographer working steadily never leaves the
gap that would end the run. Similarity alone groups a studio setup shot across
two days, which is a project rather than a moment. Together they are specific:
adjacent in time *and* looks like the frame before it.

Two seconds is the time bound, and the reason is worth recording because the
figure looks absurd next to a 10 fps camera. `images.captured_at` is whole
seconds -- EXIF's DateTimeOriginal has no sub-second field and
SubSecTimeOriginal is optional and widely omitted -- so a burst arrives in the
catalog as ten frames sharing one timestamp. Any threshold finer than a second
is a threshold on information that is not there. Where the pace really is
faster, the similarity bound is what separates the frames.

Similarity is a 64-bit difference hash over a 9x8 box-averaged reduction,
compared between *adjacent* frames only. Chained rather than anchored on the
first frame, because by frame twenty a camera following a bird has nothing in
common with frame one while no two neighbours differ by much; the time bound is
what stops the chain running away. There is no all-pairs step and there must
never be one -- that is what turns a grouping pass into something nobody can
afford to run over 50k images.

Nothing here ranks a frame. FR-CULL-5 names the failure it is avoiding, which
is rejecting the only frame of an important moment because somebody blinked, so
there is no sharpness score and no best-of-burst. The representative is the
earliest frame -- a fact about the clock, not a judgement about the photograph
-- and the user's own choice lives in its own table so that rebuilding the
grouping cannot erase it. Same argument `people.ignored` makes one subsystem
over: nothing short of remembering a decision survives re-clustering.

A newly found burst is recorded *open*. Collapsing on discovery would be
tidier, and would also mean a background pass taking photographs off the screen
part way through a cull. The pass marks; the user folds.

It is a pass rather than a job kind for the reason catalog.md 10.2 gives for
face clustering: a burst is a property of a run of frames and has no natural
subject_id, so a per-image job would rebuild the world once per photograph.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d0b671d4db Put the grouping dials where the regrouping is
The merge probability was `dr_face`'s constant and the smallest group was
a bare `< 2` in the clustering pass. Both were tuned on one library —
1,813 faces of one photographer's family — and the quantity they optimise
is a property of the population, not of the model. A household at close
family resemblance and two thousand strangers at a wedding want different
answers, and neither of them is the reference library. The doc comment
already conceded the point and pointed at `face_index --tune`; a
photographer does not have a terminal.

So they are `FaceSettings` now, saved per device beside the cache budgets
and edited from the People screen — beside the Regroup button that
applies them and the rail that shows what they did, because a value
changed three screens away from its effect is one nobody can tune.

Moving them is safe by construction, which is why nothing asks for
confirmation: a regroup writes only the suggested half, and
confirmations, names and ignores enter as anchors and come back
unchanged. The smallest-group rule is applied only to groups the system
invented — a group the user named or set aside survives it whatever its
size, because a display preference does not overrule a judgement.

**Withdrawal, without which the setting does nothing visible.** Raising
the smallest group stops the pass creating small groups; it does not
remove the ones a previous pass made, because those still hold their
suggestions, so they are not empty, so the prune leaves them. The pass
now releases every unanchored face it did not place before pruning.

And a dial you cannot see the effect of is not a dial. "What would this
do?" runs the same population through the clusterer without opening a
transaction and reports groups, faces grouped and largest group — one row
of `--tune`'s table, on the user's own library, on a worker thread. The
line leads with the group count because that is the number that says
which side of the right setting you are on: it climbs as fragments are
gathered into people and falls as separate people start being welded,
while the grouped-face count rises straight through both.

The preview parks its poll timer in a slot of its own. A preview and a
regroup are allowed to be in flight together, and sharing the sweep's
single slot would have the second to start drop the first's timer —
visible as a Regroup that finished on its worker and never said so.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 f5edd49b6b Let a manual collection be put in the order it is meant to be seen in
`collection_members.position` and `Sort::CollectionPosition` have been in the
catalog since collections were, and nothing above dr-catalog has ever written
or read either: `collections::set_order` had no callers, and the grid ordered
everything by capture time whatever it was scoped to — dr-ui does not construct
a `Query` at all, it has its own `GRID_ORDER` constant. So a manual collection
was a set with an order nobody could see or change.

Three pieces, because it could not be fewer:

`grid_order_for` decides the ordering from the scope, and both readers take it
from there. That is the load-bearing part. An ordinal only names a photograph
relative to an ordering, so the window read and the span read have to agree —
a shift-click resolved through a different ORDER BY than the cells were drawn
with selects a different run than the one on screen, and the user finds out
when the export runs. `read_ids_span` already stated that invariant about
`GRID_ORDER`; this widens it to an ordering that depends on the scope.

Only a single manual collection has one. A set draws its descendants' images
too, and two children's positions are unrelated integers that interleave
arbitrarily; a smart collection has no member rows to carry a position at all.
Both fall back to capture time and refuse the drop rather than pretending.

The drop is on the cell, on whichever half of it the finger landed — the
trailing edge is the only way to name the last place in a collection, since
there is no cell beyond the last one to drop in front of.

`reordered` is pure and the membership is rewritten whole. `set_order` sets the
positions it is given and leaves the rest, so a partial write would interleave
the moved run with rows nobody touched; and it is read unfiltered, so what the
filter is hiding keeps its place relative to what the user can see.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 9d11554c71 Make the range gesture visible, and offer the whole grid at once
Touch has had a range gesture for as long as selection mode has: double-tap the
far end. It is invisible, it is unreliable on a grid that scrolls under the
second tap, and it extends from the anchor *before* the two taps moved it — a
rule subtle enough that the code needs two paragraphs to explain it to itself.
Nobody who was not told about it has ever used it.

"Select to…" is the same operation with state you can see. Press it, the strip
stops reporting and says "Tap the last photograph", and the next cell taken is
the far end. It reaches Rust as shift on `cell-pressed`, so it lands in
`apply_press` as the ctrl+shift it already is, and there is no third selection
policy to keep in step with the other two.

This is deliberately not the sweep gesture. A drag that paints cells can only
reach what is on screen, and the ranges that hurt on a tablet are longer than a
screenful — between the two taps here the user may scroll as far as they like,
and the run is resolved by the catalog rather than by what happened to be
loaded. A sweep is still worth having for short runs; it is not what this
should have rested on.

"Select all" beside it, asked of the catalog for the same reason: a select-all
that quietly meant "the hundred cells that happen to be loaded" is a lie the
user cannot see until the export runs.

The double-tap stays. It is tested, and an accelerator that costs nothing is
worth keeping for whoever has already learnt it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d1f3b97245 Ask for the collection's name where the keyboard can reach it
"New collection from selection" created the collection under a placeholder
name and then opened the rename field in the sidebar tree.

On a tablet the sidebar is not on screen. It is instantiated all the same —
app.slint collapses it to zero width and `visible: false` rather than using an
`if`, because an `if` there is a layout loop Slint panics on — so the rename
field was created, its `init` took focus, and Android raised the on-screen
keyboard over a box nobody could see. Nothing else on the screen is focusable,
so the keyboard had nowhere to go: it stayed, the name could not be typed, and
the collection was already written under the name the user did not want.

Asked in a sheet instead, on the same card as the filing and keywording sheets,
before anything is written. That also fixes what was hiding behind it: an
abandoned rename used to leave a "New collection" in the tree, because the
collection existed before the name did.

`Field` gains `take-focus()` so a sheet whose field is the only thing to do in
it can answer the keyboard for the user — a function rather than a property,
because focus is an event and a bound property would re-take it on every
unrelated re-evaluation.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 b9891e2c04 Merge master into tablet-selection
Two real conflicts, both from work that landed either side of the same
lines rather than against them.

`lib.rs`: the settings controller was hoisted above the People screen's
wiring, and Android's thumbnail-tier eviction registered itself at the
same point. Independent, so both stay.

`library.rs`: manual collection ordering and burst folding each added a
clause to the same two queries. The scoped range read now carries both —
the folding matters there for one step further on than it does in the
grid, because a collapsed burst is one cell, so an ordinal counted over a
list still holding every frame names a photograph several places away
from the one the user pointed at.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 bbbc23f376 Let go of the keyboard when a name is finished
Pressing Enter on a person's name committed it and then kept the field
focused, so on a tablet the on-screen keyboard stayed up over the faces
the user had pressed Enter to get back to. The name looked accepted and
the screen looked stuck.

`Field` grows `release-focus()`, the other half of the `take-focus()` it
already had, and the Identity screen calls it from `accepted`. A function
rather than a property for the reason the existing one gives: focus is an
event, and bound to a property it would fight anything else that took it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 754ab91347 Bring a Lightroom library across, and start with something in the list
Two halves of the same complaint: a preset sheet that opens on "No
presets yet" is homework, and a photographer with ten years of presets
in Lightroom has no way to bring them.

`dr-preset-xmp` reads Camera Raw `.xmp`. The mapping turned out to be
mostly a rename rather than a conversion, because Adobe and this
pipeline already agree: exposure is in stops in both, and contrast, the
four recovery controls, clarity, texture, vibrance and saturation are
all ±100 in both. That is not imitation, it is the convention raw
developers converged on — `highlights_shadows.yaml` cites it in as many
words. Only sharpening needed arithmetic, Adobe's 0…150 against our
0…100.

The white balance does not come across, and says so rather than
guessing. Adobe writes absolute Kelvin for a raw file where ours is a
relative nudge from what the camera recorded, so converting needs the
*target image's* as-shot white balance — exactly what a preset cannot
carry, since the same preset lands on a frame shot at 3200K and one shot
at 7000K. A guess would be wrong on most images and invisibly so.

A folder is read as readily as a file, nested, because that is the shape
an exported preset folder is in and importing ninety files one at a time
is asking someone not to bother.

`dr_pipeline::starter` is six presets a first run begins with, written
against this pipeline in its units and deliberately mild — a starting
point, not a caricature. They are seeded when the library *file* does
not exist rather than when the library is empty, so deleting all six
does not hand them back on the next launch.

Both of these name operations, and `ui_names_no_operation` was right to
stop them living in `ui/`. That test exists because the failure is
silent and cumulative, and it caught exactly what it was written for: a
preset called "Punch" is a statement about contrast, clarity and
vibrance, and a table mapping Adobe's vocabulary to ours is a statement
about the pipeline. Neither is a fact about an interface. So the starter
set went into `dr-pipeline`, and the importer into its own crate —
between two walls, since `dr-pipeline` depends on nothing on purpose and
XMP is real XML not worth hand-rolling.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 2168cdd1c4 Mark what is in focus, so a frame can be judged without zooming to 100%
FR-CULL-3's focus peaking. One compute dispatch measures local contrast
in WGSL and writes an overlay texture; on desktop it reaches Slint
through the same zero-copy wgpu import the canvas uses, so nothing
per-pixel touches the CPU on the frame path.

With peaking off the cost is zero and structurally so: focus_overlay
opens with `let settings = self.peaking?;` before the frame is touched,
and clearing drops both overlay textures, so no VRAM is held either.

NFR-P14 is met by construction rather than by measurement -- one
dispatch, no second render, no pipeline compile after session open, and
a test asserting allocations stay at 2 over eight frames. The budget
test asserts 50ms at 4K rather than a tight bound, deliberately: a tight
bound fails on a loaded machine and gets deleted, which is worse than a
loose one that still catches the regression that matters.

TD-1 is amended rather than joined by a TD-6: on Android the overlay
rides the readback that already exists there, roughly doubling that
transfer while peaking is on, and TD-1's own "Done when" removes both
because both are the same missing capability.

Verified: cargo fmt clean; clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings
green, which also compiles peaking.slint through dr-ui's build.rs; 11
focus GPU tests and 79 baseline dr-gpu tests pass; 511 dr-ui tests pass.

Eight requirements were implemented and untagged; tagging them takes
coverage from 59.8% to 64.2% without a line of feature code. Five more
were refused rather than tagged -- R2's own acceptance criterion still

the requirement's purpose but not its stated mechanism.

docs/outstanding.md records what is genuinely unbuilt, so the gap reads
as a decision rather than an oversight. It also names four requirements

by string literals inside the traceability tool's own test fixtures.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 bb35665bd2 Let a paste carry some kinds of edit and not others
FR-DEV-6 asks for presets "covering a subset of the edit graph". What
landed with the named presets covered two subsets: everything, and
everything but the crop. "Match the colour but not the sharpening" had
no way to be said.

`Scope` is now a set of `Attribute` — the same six kinds every operation
already declares and the develop panel already builds its tabs from. The
photographer ticking "tone and colour" is naming the groups they
navigate by, and neither this module nor the interface has to name an
operation to do it (FR-DEV-3c).

The pleasing part is what left. Framing used to be excluded by an
explicit test against one operation's id; it is now excluded because
Geometry is not in the default set. The special case dissolved into the
general rule, and the argument for it — a crop is a decision about *this*
photograph, and carrying it across forty destroys forty compositions —
is now a statement about a kind of edit rather than about a node. All
thirty-three existing preset tests pass unchanged, which is the evidence
that the generalisation kept its promises.

One decision that is a field rather than a rule, because the two cases
genuinely differ. An operation this build cannot classify — from a newer
version, arriving over sync — travels under "everything" and "everything
but the crop", because those are claims about the whole edit and an
unrecognised operation is part of it (FR-NC-8). It does not travel under
a hand-picked set, because that is a claim about kinds, and an unknown
kind is not one of the kinds that were ticked.

The settings page's "Copy crop and rotation" checkbox is gone, replaced
by the same chips the preset sheet draws. It asked the right first
question — geometry is the kind whose accidental travel destroys work —
but it was the only question a boolean could ask. The field stays in
`Settings`, read exactly once to seed the new set, so anyone who had
ticked it keeps their behaviour.

The chips are deliberately not in the develop column. Six of them there
would set the width of the whole sidebar, which is the bug `ChipGrid`'s
comment records at length.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d3dadbd725 Group the frames of one moment, by when they were taken and what they look like
A burst is the commonest thing in a cull and the least interesting: twelve
frames of the same gull at 10 fps occupy twelve cells, are scrolled past
twelve times, and end with the photographer keeping one. FR-CULL-5 asks for
them to collapse to one representative and be judged as a unit.

Two signals, because neither alone survives a real library. Time alone groups
a whole wedding ceremony -- a photographer working steadily never leaves the
gap that would end the run. Similarity alone groups a studio setup shot across
two days, which is a project rather than a moment. Together they are specific:
adjacent in time *and* looks like the frame before it.

Two seconds is the time bound, and the reason is worth recording because the
figure looks absurd next to a 10 fps camera. `images.captured_at` is whole
seconds -- EXIF's DateTimeOriginal has no sub-second field and
SubSecTimeOriginal is optional and widely omitted -- so a burst arrives in the
catalog as ten frames sharing one timestamp. Any threshold finer than a second
is a threshold on information that is not there. Where the pace really is
faster, the similarity bound is what separates the frames.

Similarity is a 64-bit difference hash over a 9x8 box-averaged reduction,
compared between *adjacent* frames only. Chained rather than anchored on the
first frame, because by frame twenty a camera following a bird has nothing in
common with frame one while no two neighbours differ by much; the time bound is
what stops the chain running away. There is no all-pairs step and there must
never be one -- that is what turns a grouping pass into something nobody can
afford to run over 50k images.

Nothing here ranks a frame. FR-CULL-5 names the failure it is avoiding, which
is rejecting the only frame of an important moment because somebody blinked, so
there is no sharpness score and no best-of-burst. The representative is the
earliest frame -- a fact about the clock, not a judgement about the photograph
-- and the user's own choice lives in its own table so that rebuilding the
grouping cannot erase it. Same argument `people.ignored` makes one subsystem
over: nothing short of remembering a decision survives re-clustering.

A newly found burst is recorded *open*. Collapsing on discovery would be
tidier, and would also mean a background pass taking photographs off the screen
part way through a cull. The pass marks; the user folds.

It is a pass rather than a job kind for the reason catalog.md 10.2 gives for
face clustering: a burst is a property of a run of frames and has no natural
subject_id, so a per-image job would rebuild the world once per photograph.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 8d5dc423ea Say that all three of FR-CULL-3's bullets are unbuilt, not one
The first draft got this half right and half wrong. It correctly said the
existing histogram and clipping indicators are not FR-CULL-3's, but it
described them as adjacent — as though the work left were mostly focus
peaking and a relocation.

They are not adjacent. The histogram reads AdjustPass's 8-bit output and
counts clipping as r == 255, so it describes the frame the display is
about to show, after the entire develop chain. FR-CULL-3 asks for the
histogram of the sensor data, and gives its reason in the requirement
itself: a rendered image "systematically lies about what is recoverable in
the raw". A readout taken from the render cannot answer that question
however it is presented, which means two of the three bullets need a new
measurement rather than a new placement.

Found by the agent building focus peaking, who had to go looking at the
counters to find out.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 0d9f802f88 Regenerate the matrix that this branch is about
Eight requirements gained a tag in this branch's first commit, so the
generated matrix is stale until it is rerun. Coverage moves from 59.8%
(107/179) to 64.2% (115/179), and the untagged list drops from 72 entries
to 64.

Regenerating here rather than leaving it to the pre-commit hook, because
this branch's subject *is* the matrix: a reader comparing the two commits
should see the number move for a stated reason. The eight are R3, R6,
FR-DEV-1, FR-UI-6, FR-NC-6d, NFR-OPS-3, NFR-PORT-2 and NFR-SEC-3, and
none of them is new work — every one was already satisfied by code that
had simply never said so.

Six of the thirteen tag sites were new `TRACES:` lines rather than
additions to existing ones, so the tag count moves 896 → 902 while the
covered count moves by eight. Orphan tags remain at zero.

Run from source with `cargo run -p traceability -- report`, never from a
prebuilt binary, and note that the tool tracks line numbers — the six
prepended module tags shift every subsequent line in their own files,
which accounts for the churn in this diff that is not a coverage change.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 88ef7148d6 Write down what is not built, so the gap reads as a decision
The traceability matrix reports one number and cannot say what it means.
An untagged requirement is either one nobody built or one somebody built
and did not label, and both look identical in the summary table. Eight of
the second kind were tagged in the previous commit. This is the first
kind, written out with the reasoning, so that the distance between the
register and the binary is something a reader can see rather than
reconstruct from a percentage.

Eleven clusters, each verified against the tree rather than inherited
from a survey. Several turned out to be more interesting than "not done":

Plugins are 21 untagged requirements — nearly a third of the shortfall —
and §7 already lists the Plugin API as out of scope for v1 while §3.10
spends 280 lines specifying it. The two that *are* built, FR-PLG-2 and
FR-PLG-2d, are the declarative operation format, which is a plugin system
that resolves at build time. The fix here is an edit to requirements.md,
not code, and D16 has to be answered before any format is called stable.

FR-DSP-2 is not merely unbuilt; it is under challenge. frame_budget.rs
and TD-4 independently argue that tiling costs more than it saves on the
interactive path, so the open question is whether the requirement should
survive, not when it will be met — and the spike that would settle it, S6,
has not run.

NFR-A11Y-1's hard half is done and its easy half is not. LocalizedKey
already keeps display strings out of core/ and labels::resolve is a single
resolution point; what that point does is a hardcoded English match, so a
translation needs a recompile, which is the one thing the requirement
forbids.

The §4.1 performance targets are unverified rather than unmet. §8 requires
a per-commit benchmark suite whose regressions fail the build; there is no
benches/ directory, no criterion, and no benchmark step in any of the
three CI workflows. The one guard that does live in CI skips itself
without a GPU adapter and asserts its CPU half only in release, while CI
tests in dev. Nothing says the targets are missed. It says nobody would
find out.

And three requirements are reported as covered while not being met: R1 and
NFR-OPS-1 are tagged only by string literals inside the traceability
tool's own tests, which it scans along with everything else, and
FR-CAT-13's single tag sits on keyword storage while no XMP is parsed or
written anywhere. CONTRIBUTING already warns that a tag proves a tag
exists; these are the specific ones.

Focus peaking, burst grouping, Flatpak packaging and the Android platform
integration are being built in parallel and are marked in progress rather
than listed as absent, so those lines can be struck as they land.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 95847e3a31 Say which channels v1 ships through, and that the Flatpak cannot reach a library
NFR-COMPAT-2 asks for the v1 channels to be stated, and says why in its own
second sentence: the channel decision and the storage design are coupled. There
was nowhere that statement lived. packaging/ held a PKGBUILD and a desktop
entry, which is a recipe rather than a decision, and the coupling the
requirement points at was therefore invisible.

docs/distribution.md states five channels and, more usefully, which two of them
exist only as promises. It also records what every channel has to get right
independently of format — the one identifier that appears in four places, the
metainfo, Vulkan being a requirement rather than a preference while NFR-R8 is
open, a secrets daemon being optional rather than required, and the LFS pointer
check that stops a package shipping 130 bytes where an 11 MB model should be.

§4 is the part worth reading. Preparing a Flatpak is what surfaced that
FR-PLAT-LIN-3 is not satisfied and cannot be satisfied by packaging alone: a
folder library is chosen by typing an absolute path into an EndpointOnly field
that checks it with std::fs, and nothing in the tree calls the FileChooser
portal. Inside a sandbox that path does not exist, so the launch screen refuses
it. Import fails one step earlier, because a sandboxed process reads its own
mount namespace and a card mounted on the host is not in it.

That is written down rather than fixed with --filesystem=host, and the argument
for not fixing it that way is §2: the Arch package and an AppImage both hand the
application the same unrestricted process the developer runs it in, so Flatpak
is the only Linux channel that tests whether a design assumed unrestricted
access. Granting the permission removes the only reason to ship it.

The reverse coupling on Android is recorded too. NFR-COMPAT-2 says Play
distribution is what makes ARCH §6.9 binding; §6.9 is verified rather than
assumed, so SAF is already unconditional and a sideloaded build would gain
nothing by asking for more. Play is deferred over the GPLv3 question, which is
a licence-reading exercise and blocks nothing in the storage design.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 5a8327824f Keep an edit under a name, not just on the clipboard
FR-DEV-6 asks for three things — named presets, copy/paste between
images, and batch-apply to a selection. The last two have been here for
a while; this is the first.

The format is the sidecar's, deliberately. A preset *is* the non-default
half of a version, so the lines are the same lines keyed the same way,
which makes the two files diffable against each other and lets someone
debugging an edit paste a block from one into the other. One file rather
than one per preset: a preset per file makes the name a path, and every
name then has to survive a filesystem — a `/` becomes a directory, a
name differing only in case collides on one platform and not another,
and renaming becomes two operations that can half-fail. As a key in a
document it is none of those.

Unknown *parameters* needed no machinery. `Preset` already holds
whatever keys it is given and resolves them against the descriptors only
at apply time, so one written by a newer build survives by being stored.
Only lines that are not `op.param = float` at all are preserved
verbatim, which is the sidecar's version-skew promise made here too.

Applying is the paste path with a different source, so a preset reaches
a selection through the sidecar read-modify-write that was already
there: no graph, no decode, no GPU, forty files or one.

Two smaller decisions worth the record. A library that fails to parse is
held empty in memory and *not* written back over — settings regenerate
themselves and this is work, so a parse failure must not be the moment
it is destroyed. And every save persists immediately and rolls the
in-memory copy back if the write fails, so the sheet never lists a
preset the file does not have.

The grid's "Presets" button is gated on the selection alone, unlike the
"Paste to 40" beside it. That button needs a clipboard armed this
session; the preset list is whatever was saved last month, and hiding it
behind an unrelated action is what makes a feature only its author knows
about.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 574107bc39 Let a manual collection be put in the order it is meant to be seen in
`collection_members.position` and `Sort::CollectionPosition` have been in the
catalog since collections were, and nothing above dr-catalog has ever written
or read either: `collections::set_order` had no callers, and the grid ordered
everything by capture time whatever it was scoped to — dr-ui does not construct
a `Query` at all, it has its own `GRID_ORDER` constant. So a manual collection
was a set with an order nobody could see or change.

Three pieces, because it could not be fewer:

`grid_order_for` decides the ordering from the scope, and both readers take it
from there. That is the load-bearing part. An ordinal only names a photograph
relative to an ordering, so the window read and the span read have to agree —
a shift-click resolved through a different ORDER BY than the cells were drawn
with selects a different run than the one on screen, and the user finds out
when the export runs. `read_ids_span` already stated that invariant about
`GRID_ORDER`; this widens it to an ordering that depends on the scope.

Only a single manual collection has one. A set draws its descendants' images
too, and two children's positions are unrelated integers that interleave
arbitrarily; a smart collection has no member rows to carry a position at all.
Both fall back to capture time and refuse the drop rather than pretending.

The drop is on the cell, on whichever half of it the finger landed — the
trailing edge is the only way to name the last place in a collection, since
there is no cell beyond the last one to drop in front of.

`reordered` is pure and the membership is rewritten whole. `set_order` sets the
positions it is given and leaves the rest, so a partial write would interleave
the moved run with rows nobody touched; and it is read unfiltered, so what the
filter is hiding keeps its place relative to what the user can see.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 6d25d85f18 Make the range gesture visible, and offer the whole grid at once
Touch has had a range gesture for as long as selection mode has: double-tap the
far end. It is invisible, it is unreliable on a grid that scrolls under the
second tap, and it extends from the anchor *before* the two taps moved it — a
rule subtle enough that the code needs two paragraphs to explain it to itself.
Nobody who was not told about it has ever used it.

"Select to…" is the same operation with state you can see. Press it, the strip
stops reporting and says "Tap the last photograph", and the next cell taken is
the far end. It reaches Rust as shift on `cell-pressed`, so it lands in
`apply_press` as the ctrl+shift it already is, and there is no third selection
policy to keep in step with the other two.

This is deliberately not the sweep gesture. A drag that paints cells can only
reach what is on screen, and the ranges that hurt on a tablet are longer than a
screenful — between the two taps here the user may scroll as far as they like,
and the run is resolved by the catalog rather than by what happened to be
loaded. A sweep is still worth having for short runs; it is not what this
should have rested on.

"Select all" beside it, asked of the catalog for the same reason: a select-all
that quietly meant "the hundred cells that happen to be loaded" is a lie the
user cannot see until the export runs.

The double-tap stays. It is tested, and an accelerator that costs nothing is
worth keeping for whoever has already learnt it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 9ac1447139 Ask for the collection's name where the keyboard can reach it
"New collection from selection" created the collection under a placeholder
name and then opened the rename field in the sidebar tree.

On a tablet the sidebar is not on screen. It is instantiated all the same —
app.slint collapses it to zero width and `visible: false` rather than using an
`if`, because an `if` there is a layout loop Slint panics on — so the rename
field was created, its `init` took focus, and Android raised the on-screen
keyboard over a box nobody could see. Nothing else on the screen is focusable,
so the keyboard had nowhere to go: it stayed, the name could not be typed, and
the collection was already written under the name the user did not want.

Asked in a sheet instead, on the same card as the filing and keywording sheets,
before anything is written. That also fixes what was hiding behind it: an
abandoned rename used to leave a "New collection" in the tree, because the
collection existed before the name did.

`Field` gains `take-focus()` so a sheet whose field is the only thing to do in
it can answer the keyboard for the user — a function rather than a property,
because focus is an event and a bound property would re-take it on every
unrelated re-evaluation.
