docs: record two measurements from the queue selection work

The first is a second instance of a rule CLAUDE.md already states, with
numbers: a virtualized list can be repainting for a reason you are about
to delete, and here there are two such reasons — so removing either
alone changes nothing observable, and removing both leaves the highlight
seconds late rather than absent. That is the shape a poll cannot see,
which is the general lesson worth keeping.

The second is the hit-scan, because it stopped a wrong fix: the queue
panel is 12% link and the track list 21%, which is the opposite of the
assumption the fix was being built on.

+## `config-section .header` is ambiguous once a job exists (2026-08-19)
+
+#27 embeds `<job-panel>` inside four Settings sections, and a panel with
+any job in it also mounts a `job-details-drawer` — whose own header
+carries the class `.header`. So `config-page config-section .header`,
+which `settings-reach.spec.ts` had used since plan 007, resolves to two
+elements and fails Playwright's strict mode the moment a scan has run.
+
+Two things follow. A spec asserting on a section's *disclosure* should
+locate it by role and name (`getByRole('button', {name: heading})`) or
+scope per section and take `.first()`, not by that class. And this is a
+worked example of the more general trap: a class name is not a
+selector's contract, and a component that embeds another inherits its
+class names into every ancestor query.
+
+It also only appears in a suite that has *done* something — the
+sections are empty on a fresh app, so this cannot be reproduced by
+opening Settings and looking.
+
+**And it appears on the second engine, not the first.** CI runs
+chromium then webkit against **one app**, so a spec that scans in the
+chromium pass leaves a finished job the webkit pass then trips over.
+Three specs used that selector; two failed locally and the third
+(`failure-voice.spec.ts`) was green on chromium and red on webkit in
+the same run. Reproducing it locally is running the suite twice against
+one `make dev-headless` — which is worth doing for any change that
+leaves state behind, since it is the only place a cross-engine order
+dependency shows up.
+
+## `scrollWidth` counts the left padding and not the right (measured 2026-08-20)
+
+The obvious predicate for "does this flex row fit" is
+`el.scrollWidth <= el.clientWidth`, and on a box with symmetric gutters
+it **under-reports by one gutter**. `scrollWidth` is the extent of the
+scrollable content area, which includes `padding-left` and excludes
+`padding-right`; `clientWidth` includes both. So a child may end up to
+`padding-right` past where content is allowed to go while the box
+reports a perfect fit.
+
+Measured on the top bar (`padding: 0 2em`) at 700x600 with a long-titled
+scan staged: `clientWidth 700`, `scrollWidth 700` — and
+`job-indicator`'s right edge at 700 against a content edge of 668, i.e.
+sitting in the whole right gutter. `#143`'s first fix passed its own
+measurement and left the indicator visibly jammed against the window
+edge.
+
+The predicate `services/top-bar-fit.ts` uses instead is the one its
+spec asserts: no in-flow child's rect outside the parent's *content*
+box, both edges, with half a pixel of slack for fractional flex widths.
+
+This is the same family as #69's title trap — the measurement easiest to
+reach for is the one that cannot see the failure — and it is worth
+knowing before writing the next one of these: **the fit test and the
+assertion that proves it should be the same test.** It was found only
+because `top-bar-fit.spec.ts` measures per child rather than asserting
+on the container, which is exactly why #69 needed
+`header-action-overflow.spec.ts`.
+
+## The top bar's overflow is 11px idle and 262px while working (measured 2026-08-20)
+
+#143 was filed as "11px at 600x600" and re-measured as 171. Both are the
+same defect seen with different jobs running: `job-indicator` is
+`hidden` when idle, ~144px wide showing "Scanning Music", and **235px**
+showing a real library's scan title ("Scanning Music from the external
+drive"), because the label is capped at 12rem and gets there.
+
+Swept against the running app with that job staged, `header.top-bar`
+client vs scroll:
+
+| width | idle | with the long-titled scan |
+|---|---|---|
+| 320, 390, 599 | fits | fits (the phone rules drop the filter and the label) |
+| 600 | 611 | **862** |
+| 700 | fits | 862 |
+| 800 | fits | 862 |
+| 899 | fits | 899 (fits) |
+| 900 | fits | 946 |
+| 1100, 1440 | fits | fits |
+
+Two things worth keeping. The band is **600–610 idle and 600–900 while
+working**, so "a narrow corner" and "the header is crowded from 900
+down" are both true and the difference is entirely what is in flight —
+which is the case a seeded, settled app can never show you. And 899
+fits while 900 does not, because `nav-history` appears at 900: the worst
+width for the header is not the narrowest one, the same way 900 rather
+than 800 is the worst width for the content area.
+
+Staging it is `/__test/emit` with a `JobsChanged` snapshot; a job with
+`state: "running"` never completes, so it stays up until an empty
+snapshot is emitted, which is what makes an idle re-measurement look
+like the fix not working.
+
+## Two repaint mechanisms, and neither is pinned alone (measured 2026-08-20)
+
+`CLAUDE.md` already states the rule — *a virtualized list repaints only
+when you tell it to, and the accidental way you were telling it may be
+the thing you are about to delete* — found in `artists-view` and
+`genres-view`. `queue-panel` is a second instance with numbers, and the
+numbers are the part worth keeping.
+
+It repaints its rows **two** ways:
+
+- `onSelectionChanged()` calls `virtualizer.requestUpdate()`, which is
+  the intended one and the one `track-list` has always had;
+- `.keyFunction=${(track) => track.id}` is a **per-render arrow**, so it
+  is a changed property on every host update and repaints the rows by
+  itself.
+
+Removing *either* alone changes nothing observable. That is why #43
+could not be settled by reading the code: the hypothesis in its Findings
+(the repaint is missing) was checkable, false, and would have looked
+identical either way.
+
+Removing **both** does not break selection either — it delays it. Time
+from click to `aria-selected`, three clicks each:
+
+| build | ms to highlight |
+|---|---|
+| healthy | 5, 16, 17 |
+| both mechanisms removed | 134, 3,866, 5,816 |
+
+The highlight arrives on whatever unrelated render happens next (the
+player's 1 Hz position report is the usual candidate). **Four seconds is
+indistinguishable from broken to a user, and invisible to a spec** —
+`expect.poll`'s default 5 s timeout passes the degraded build on every
+assertion. `queue-selection.spec.ts` bounds its selection assertions at
+500 ms for that reason, which is ~30x the healthy case and an order of
+magnitude under the degraded one.
+
+The general form, for the next spec about anything push-driven: **a poll
+generous enough to be stable is generous enough to miss a latency
+regression entirely.** If "late" is a failure mode worth having, the
+timeout has to say so.
+
+## A hit-scan says how much of a row is not selectable (measured 2026-08-20)
+
+`explore-link` stops the click's propagation on purpose — "the row must
+not also treat it as a selection" — so a click on a track, album or
+artist *name* navigates and selects nothing. That is app-wide and
+deliberate, and the useful question about any given list is how much of
+its row it costs.
+
+Asking `elementFromPoint` what is under each x across a row, at three
+heights:
+
+| list | link coverage |
+|---|---|
+| queue panel | 12% |
+| track list | 21% |
+
+This killed a fix in progress. #43 reads as "selection is broken in the
+queue panel, and fine in the track list", the obvious mechanism is that
+the queue's narrow rows are mostly name, and it is **wrong**: the panel
+is *less* link-covered than the list it is being compared against. The
+scan takes a minute and is worth running before demoting anybody's links
+— `explore-album-details`'s tracklist (number / title / artist /
+duration) is the one that plausibly *is* mostly link, and is the one
+#5 is about to add selection to.

 themselves already existed; what was new is that they are a promise and
 that the queue panel is inside it.
 
+**The top bar decides what it can afford, and what it gives up is never
+an action.** Its five children do not fit at the bottom of the Compact
+band: the bar was 611px inside a 600px viewport idle and **862px while
+a scan ran**, because `job-indicator` is `hidden` when idle and 235px
+wide showing a real library's scan title (#143). So `services/
+top-bar-fit.ts` is `page-header`'s treatment one bar up — a
+ResizeObserver, every pass starting from all-visible, hiding the
+lowest-priority child until it fits.
+
+Five things about it are load-bearing.
+
+**It is measured rather than breakpointed for a reason specific to this
+bar**: three of its five children are as wide as their *content* — the
+library filter is a `<select>` sized by the longest library name, the
+indicator by the running job's title, the search box by its view-scoped
+placeholder — so any width picked is right for one library, one job and
+one view. Swept with a long-titled scan staged, the bar overflowed at
+**every** width from 600 to 899 *and* at 900 where `nav-history`
+appears, while 899 fits; a breakpoint fixing "600 to 610" would have
+fixed whichever case happened to be idle when it was measured.
+
+**What yields is decided by the promise above, which rules out the two
+cheapest answers.** Hiding the library filter takes away an action —
+`library-filter` is the only control in the app that calls
+`setSelectedLibrary` — so it trades this promise for the same promise
+(#148 is the phone already doing that). Collapsing the search box to an
+icon is what #57 wants and #57 is blocked behind #62, so building it
+here is building it without the thing that blocks it. The two that
+yield are the two that are **not** actions: the wordmark, which the
+window's own title bar repeats and which #48 wants down to "YJ" at
+every width anyway, and then the job indicator's *label*, leaving the
+ring — which is not a new judgement, since the component already drops
+it below 600px and its `sr-only` live region is what announces the
+state either way.
+
+**The wordmark yields its width, not its existence.** The collapsed
+rule is visually-hidden rather than `display: none`, because that `h1`
+is the document's top-level heading as well as the brand.
+
+**"Fits" is the children against the content box, and `scrollWidth`
+cannot express it.** `scrollWidth` counts a box's left padding and not
+its right, so with 2em gutters it under-reports by 32px: the first fix
+read `700/700` — a perfect fit — with the indicator sitting in the
+whole right gutter. Same family as #69's title trap, and found only
+because `top-bar-fit.spec.ts` measures **per child**, which is what
+`layout-overflow.spec.ts` cannot do and why that spec was green
+throughout the defect.
+
+And **the bar does not resize when a job starts**, which is the case the
+whole thing is for — a ResizeObserver on the header alone never fires,
+so every element child is observed too.
+
 **900 is the worst desktop width, not the 800×600 minimum.** The
 sidebar collapses to icons *below* 900, so the main panel is 843px at
 899 and 700px at 900 — the narrowest content area any desktop width

+ * progress, `downloads-view` draws every download's lifecycle state,
+ * `autotag-view` draws its own apply ring, and only `library-scan` had

+ * affordances — pause, cancel, "Details", the log, and a finished job
+ * you can dismiss — which is what this carries to each of them.
+ *
+ * Three things about it are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **The controls are `applyJobControl`, not a reimplementation.** That
+ * is what keeps the "you will discard hours of downloading"
+ * confirmation on an index build alive across the move: it is keyed on
+ * `KindIndexBuild` inside the shared handler, and a host that rendered
+ * its own buttons would silently drop it.
+ *
+ * **A panel with nothing to say renders nothing at all**, host padding
+ * included — an idle panel in four places is four pieces of furniture
+ * describing an absence. That is the rule `startBackfillJob` follows
+ * for the indicator, one layer up.
+ *
+ * **There is no "Clear finished" here**, because `ClearFinishedJobs` is

+/**
+ * What the top bar drops when it runs out of room (#143).
+ *
+ * The bar holds five children — the wordmark, back/forward, the library
+ * filter, the search box and the job indicator — and at the bottom of
+ * the Compact band they do not all fit. Measured on `main` at 600×600:
+ * the bar is 611px inside a 600px viewport sitting still, and **862px
+ * while a scan with a long title is running**, because `job-indicator`
+ * is `hidden` when idle and up to 235px wide when it is not. `body` is
+ * `overflow-x: auto`, so what a user sees is a horizontal scrollbar on
+ * a shell that #24 promised would not need one.
+ *
+ * **The fit is measured, never breakpointed**, which is `page-header`'s
+ * rule (#69) and applies here for a reason specific to this bar: three
+ * of its five children are as wide as their *content*. The library
+ * filter is a `<select>` sized by the longest library name, the job
+ * indicator by the running job's title, and the search box by its
+ * view-scoped placeholder — so any width you pick is right for exactly
+ * one library, one job and one view. The same sweep that produced the
+ * numbers above found the bar overflowing at every width from 600 to
+ * 899 *and* at 900, where `nav-history` reappears; a breakpoint fixing
+ * "600 to 610" would have fixed the case that happened to be idle.
+ *
+ * **What yields is chosen by #24's own sentence** — *no action is ever
+ * unreachable at any supported size* — which rules out the two cheapest
+ * candidates the issue lists. Hiding the library filter takes away an
+ * action: `library-filter` is the **only** control in the app that sets
+ * the selected library (nothing else calls `setSelectedLibrary`), so
+ * hiding it is trading this promise for the same promise. Collapsing
+ * the search box to an icon is what #57 wants on a phone, but #57 is
+ * blocked behind #62 and building its modal here would be building it
+ * without the thing that blocks it.
+ *
+ * So the two things that yield are the two that are **not** actions and
+ * whose content survives elsewhere:
+ *
+ * 1. **The wordmark**, which is a brand — the window's own title bar
+ *    says the same thing, and #48 wants it down to "YJ" at every width
+ *    anyway. It yields its *width*, not its existence: the rule in
+ *    `index.css` is visually-hidden rather than `display: none`, so the
+ *    document keeps its top-level heading.
+ * 2. **The job indicator's label**, leaving the ring. This is not a new
+ *    judgement — the component already drops it below 600px for exactly
+ *    this reason, and its `sr-only` live region is what announces the
+ *    state either way, so nothing is lost to anyone. What a measurement
+ *    adds is the band between 600 and 900, where whether the label fits
+ *    depends on what else is in the bar rather than on the width alone.
+ *
+ * Measured against the running app with a long-titled scan staged, that
+ * order fits at every width from 320 to 1440 — and collapses nothing at
+ * 320, 390, 599, 899 and 1100, which is the other half of the claim.
+ *
+ * Three things about the mechanism are load-bearing.
+ *
+ * **Every pass starts from all-visible**, so the collapsed set is a
+ * pure function of the current width rather than of how the window got
+ * there. `page-header` states the same rule and the same reasons: a
+ * pass that only ever added would never give the wordmark back, and one
+ * that adjusted by a step would need a hysteresis band to stop it
+ * oscillating on the pixel where it exactly fits.
+ *
+ * **"Fits" is the children against the content box, not `scrollWidth`
+ * against `clientWidth`** — and that distinction is not pedantry, it
+ * is a measured false pass. `scrollWidth` counts a box's *left*
+ * padding and not its right, so with this bar's 2em gutters it
+ * under-reports by 32px: at 700px with a scan running it read
+ * `700/700`, a perfect fit, while `job-indicator` ended 32px past
+ * where the content may go and sat in the gutter. Same family as #69's
+ * title trap, one property over — the measurement that is easiest to
+ * reach for is the one that cannot see the failure. So the predicate
+ * here is the same one `top-bar-fit.spec.ts` asserts: no in-flow child
+ * outside the content box.
+ *
+ * That is only truthful in turn because **nothing here absorbs pressure
+ * by truncating**. The collapsible children are `flex-shrink: 0` in
+ * `index.css`, so a deficit shows up as a child out of bounds instead
+ * of quietly eating the indicator's label, which is `text-overflow:
+ * ellipsis` and would have. The search box is the one child that may
+ * shrink, between its 320px basis and the 200px floor its own
+ * stylesheet sets, and a narrower input hides nothing it was showing.
+ *
+ * **The bar does not resize when a job starts**, which is the case the
+ * whole thing is for. A ResizeObserver on the header alone never fires:
+ * the indicator goes 0 → 235 inside a bar whose width has not changed.
+ * Every element child is observed too.
