Two things a tablet could not do. Both existed for a pointer and had no touch form at all, which on Android meant the collection sidebar was somewhere to look at rather than somewhere to file into. **Selecting more than one.** Ctrl-click and shift-click are the only ways into a multi-selection, and touch has neither. Holding a cell now enters selection mode, where a tap toggles — reported to Rust as a ctrl-press, so it goes through the same `apply_press` as everything else rather than growing a second copy of the selection rules. A double tap takes the run between where selecting began and there: the touch form of shift-click, and the reason the anchor from *before* the double tap has to be remembered, since both of its taps move the anchor onto the cell being tapped. A "Select" button does the same thing where a gesture would go undiscovered (FR-UI-4). **Filing without a drag.** A one-finger drag beginning in the grid belongs to the Flickable that scrolls it — that is the arbitration working, not a bug to route around — so the selection can now be filed from a sheet listing the sidebar's own rows. Copy by default, as the drag has always been; moving out of the collection being shown is a switch, because it is the one that takes something away. **Taking a collection offline.** The machinery was there and reachable only by scoping the grid to a collection and finding a button behind a disclosure. Holding a collection's name now asks the question directly, and the tray on a row and the header button ask the same one — three affordances doing two different things is how a user comes to avoid all three. The question is asked rather than a toggle flipped because both answers are expensive: one downloads gigabytes, the other deletes them, and the counts and sizes go in the buttons where they are read before the tap. `Cache::release` is new and is the destructive half `unpin` deliberately is not. "Remove the local copies" is asked by someone whose device is full, and withdrawing a promise while leaving the bytes for a future eviction to notice is not an answer to it. It unpins before forgetting, or the next pin fetch would dutifully download everything it just deleted. The sidebar's trays read `tier_actual`, never `tier_desired`: the question is whether these will open on the aeroplane, and a pin whose download has not run yet answers no.

Building
Desktop:
cargo run -p darkroom-desktop
Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):
./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release
Current state
Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.
Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.
cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback
reproduces that measurement.
