The wider macOS gutter added for the Liquid Glass corner curve read as
excessive next to the 8 px the content pane keeps; one value on every
platform now, and the macOS-only theme token is gone with its comment.

The bottom band is now NowPlayingBar.qml's root: full width, flush on the
window's bottom edge, surface-card @ 0.5 over the ambient field like the
HeaderBar, opaque surface-card otherwise. The bar layout (PlayerBar /
NowPlayingBarSmall) paints no background of its own and mounts inset by the
gutter on its left, right and bottom, so the bar's ends still line up with
the content pane's while nothing around it shows the raw field. Both
rejected shapes are documented in place: an inset plate over the raw field
(three sides of raw background, the only zone of the shell without chrome)
and a frame slab behind an inset plate (a bar glued onto a slab). A future
layout inherits the band and the gutter from the seam instead of carrying
either.

Preserve the remaining queue when shuffle is disabled, expose clear transport state tooltips, retain Library source filters for the session, and add independent track-artwork preferences for Queue and Library.

Full-parity port of the Slint QConnect integration per the contract at
qbz-nix-docs/qt-frontend/2026-08-01-qconnect-port/00-CONTRACT.md (three
adversarial review rounds on the spec, §12 trap sign-off PASS on both
halves, RFB-verified incl. a real cloud connect, live session
owner-tested). The shared crates are consumed verbatim — zero backend
changes.
- adapter quartet: qconnect_transport_qt (credentials, identity on the
shared qconnect_settings.db), qconnect_engine_qt (start_track_stream
fallback chain + feeder helpers + CMAF cursor sync),
qconnect_event_sink_qt, qconnect_qt (the facade: connect/disconnect
recipe, controller routing, echo guards, offline parking B12, startup
auto-connect)
- QbzQConnect bridge singleton + on_session_entered wiring; one shared
flyout for both bars (tooltip on the large bar only), Developer >
Connect diagnostics modal, device-row glyphs, settings rows live
- poll loop: peer-reflection branch before cast, ~2 s renderer reports,
sync-on-add on every Qobuz-castable add path
- routing: cast → QConnect → local (mute QConnect-first), play arms
after the set_queue funnel, reorder cloud arm with no local fallback,
volume/mute/seek remote-first
- touchpoints: lyrics remote anchor, scrobble guarded / Discord
unguarded, cast suspend/resume, volume-lock lifted when remote

Two fronts of the modularization, both gated green before this commit.
QML leaves the flat qml/ directory for seven modules: cards, controls,
rows, settings, shell, theme, views. Only Main.qml and LoginScreen.qml
stay at the root. build.rs matches the tree exactly (55 files), relative
imports and asset paths were re-anchored for the new depth.
The QbzBridge God-object starts breaking up: QbzSession, QbzShell,
QbzPlayer, QbzQueue and QbzHome are now their own #[cxx_qt::bridge]
singletons, each with its own OnceLock<CxxQtThread> and ui() hop, booted
in order from Main.qml. Bridge files stay directly under src/ because
cxx-qt-build only accepts rust_files from one directory (QTBUG-93443).
bridge.rs keeps 5.5 domains (library, album/artist, settings,
integrations, search, playlist) and dies once they are split out.
