The develop view shall have a documented keyboard vocabulary, generated into the gesture book from the code that implements it.

Why

ui/dr-ui/src/gesture_book.rs — which is generated by cargo run -p traceability -- gestures and is the application's own statement of what it can do — currently holds 16 gestures across exactly two sections: Library grid and People. Develop has none. Two of the sixteen carry a key binding at all.

Either the bindings do not exist or they are undiscoverable, and to a photographer those are the same problem. Editing rhythm depends on the hands staying put: reaching for a menu breaks the concentration of an edit the same way it breaks the pace of a cull.

Known to exist today: Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z (app.slint:2111). That is the whole develop vocabulary.

Acceptance

At minimum, each bound and each tagged beside its implementation:

Next / previous frame
Fit ↔ 1:1 (see the 1:1 inspection ticket)
Hold-to-compare against the original (see that ticket)
Undo / redo — already bound, needs the tag
Reset the focused control
Toggle the selected mask layer
Cycle panel groups
Copy settings / paste settings

And:

cargo run -p traceability -- gestures emits a Develop section — the book cannot describe a gesture the application does not have.
Every binding has a pointer or touch equivalent; none is keyboard-only (FR-DEV-3b, NFR-A11Y-2).

Part of the Develop Ergonomics spec (FR-DEV series proposal), 2026-09-05.

Bindings to cover once they exist: #2 (fit ↔ 1:1) and #3 (hold-to-compare).

Landed across 9cc52fd (2026-09-12) and its predecessors: every gesture in the clause is bound, including the two this issue's follow-up named (reset the last-moved control, hide the selected mask layer). FR-DEV-16 is tagged in five files and the book is generated.
