From the controller-mode debug session. All peer-facing paths gate on
is_peer_renderer_active, so renderer / local / disconnected playback is
unaffected.
- Now-playing bar + queue follow the peer authoritatively: reflect the peer's
current track / position / volume, refresh on the peer's track changes, and
fetch a fresh renderer state on becoming a controller (so the bar isn't stale
until the next track change; this also fixed remote pause, which had been
sending a stale current_queue_item).
- Route play-next / add-to-queue (single track) to the peer via
QueueInsertTracks / QueueAddTracks (insert-after the peer's current item);
multi-track album/playlist enqueue stays local for now. Clear the superseded
SetVolume pending to stop the volume-drag command spam.
- Clean disconnect: disarm the liveness watchdog + clear the device list / cast
state, so no spurious "renderer unreachable" toast and no lingering badge.
- Volume lock only for local ALSA-Direct bit-perfect (backend Alsa + plugin Hw),
lifted while controlling; reflect the peer's volume with a 50% safety clamp
when unknown.
- Connect button golden whenever a session is on; +2px now-playing bar height.

Shell & navigation:
- Three-state sidebar (open/mini/closed); collapse cycles via header button.
- Section nav as right-flyouts (sidebar) + compact header nav (closed) +
full header tabs (nav-in-sidebar off), via a shared HeaderMenuOverlay.
- Collapsed-folder right-flyout popup (max 4 + scrollbar), Rust-populated.
- Thin auto-hiding sidebar scrollbar pinned to the edge (Flickable, drag-safe).
- Slack-style bezel: rounded inset content panel over surface-card chrome.
- Header restructure: nav buttons, window-centered search, app menu.
Themes & components:
- Live theme switching: Dark / OLED Black / Tokyo Night / System (std-widgets).
- SegmentedTabBar (Discovery-style) with count badges for Library + Local Library.
- MP3 quality-badge tier (format-first classification) across badges.
- QbzSelect (Group/Sort) trimmed 20px.
Behavior fixes:
- Artist + Local Library Folder cover art now reach the rendered (visible/
grouped) models, not just the source set.
- Favorites Playlists/Labels random buttons.
- Playlist track click plays from the clicked track in visible order.
- Dropdown idle-close pauses while the cursor rests on the menu.

NowPlayingBar (start of the playback-bar work):
- height raised to 110px
- SeekBar component: three-line track (total / cached / progress), a
hover thumb, elapsed/remaining times, and a hover time bubble with a
downward caret marking the seek position
- song card: background and border dropped, gains the extra height,
album/artist links and the context icon kept (context icon now
always shown)
- transport + secondary buttons copied from Tauri (shuffle, prev,
play, next, repeat, add, favorite; cast, picture-in-picture,
fullscreen, normalization; volume cluster). Queue/Lyrics stay in the
header — and the header now orders them lyrics-then-queue.
Settings constraints (1:1 with Tauri):
- Exclusive Mode enabled only on ALSA; DAC Passthrough only on
PipeWire; Lock Output Device disabled while DAC Passthrough is on;
Gapless disabled while Streaming Only is on
- backend change cascades: forces off DAC passthrough / force-bit-
perfect / exclusive / gapless as appropriate; DAC-passthrough and
streaming-only cascades; initial-buffer slider right-aligned
Discover fixes:
- navigation [<] [>] pair homologated to the same top/left margin
across every view
- album/artist description moved back into the metadata column (it now
fills the width there) with uniform secondary text color
- genre filter button hugs its label instead of stretching
- Recently Played Albums and Tracks modules always render, with a
placeholder until the play history has data
- wider spacing between Discover rows; the Discover gear is no longer
a Settings shortcut (it is the per-tab sort/show-hide control)

M1 progress. Adds the post-login shell: HeaderBar (nav tabs and
search), Sidebar (playlists list and user card), PlayerBar (transport,
now-playing, volume), and AppShell composing them with the content
region as a placeholder.
app.slint gains an AppScreen enum; clicking sign-in or start-offline
navigates login -> shell (no real auth yet — that is M2). New layout
foundation tokens (sidebar width, header/player-bar heights) plus
border and hover semantic colors.
