vicrodh 750c59034b feat(qt): Excel-style multi-select — Shift ranges across every surface
Selection existed but had no keyboard: every click was a single toggle,
so picking 40 tracks meant 40 clicks. Slint and Tauri have had ranges
since 2026-06; this is that port.

NINE surfaces, not the five the track views suggested: Album, Artist,
Playlist, Label, Local Album, plus Library's tracks and albums and Local
Library's tracks and albums. Each carried its own hand-copied `selected`
map and its own `toggleSelected`, so the rule went into
controls/SelectionModel.qml and the maps stayed where they were — the
smallest change that stops it being copied a tenth time.

The rules are Tauri's `applyShiftRange`, unchanged: a plain click
toggles one row without clearing the rest, Shift fills the range from
the anchor ADDITIVELY (so re-dragging a range cannot eat the set) and
leaves the anchor where it is, and Ctrl/Cmd is the same as a plain click
— not a shortcut, but the behaviour both references already have,
because an accumulating click is what "add without disturbing" means.

Qt makes this CHEAPER than Slint, and the difference is worth recording:
Slint had no modifiers at click time and had to read a thread-local set
from a ModifiersChanged handler, with a documented stale-read edge case
when the window lost focus mid-chord. A QML MouseArea delivers
`mouse.modifiers` on the event itself, so the modifier and the click can
never disagree and no such seam exists here.

Three judgement calls, stated because they are not forced:

  - Library gets TWO models, one per kind. Its rows are mixed, and one
    anchor would let a Shift-click on a track sweep up the albums drawn
    between it and the anchor.
  - Ranges run over the VISIBLE rows. Local Library's search box is a
    view filter, and a range over rows the user cannot see is not the
    range they asked for — the same call `select-all` already made.
  - The Local Library tree rail keeps plain toggles. Its selection lives
    in Rust (QbzLocal.treeToggle*Select), so there is no QML map to hang
    an anchor off; teaching the Rust side about an anchor is its own
    change, and the file says so where a reader would expect otherwise.

The anchor is an ID, not an index, because every one of these views can
re-sort or filter under a live selection — an index anchor silently
points at a different track the moment the order changes. Slint's
selection.rs made the same call for the same reason.

Verified by driving the app: in Abbey Road, click row 1 then Shift-click
row 5 selects exactly rows 1-5 and leaves 6-8 untouched, with the bar
reading "5 selected"; the same in a playlist, additively over a row that
was already selected.

vicrodh cb4c03ca46 feat(qt): one Open menu and one Refresh menu in the Local Library header
The ephemeral pane used to be a third arm of the Folders tab, reachable only
through a folder-open icon buried in the tree rail — one arm of one mode of
one tab. It also HID the folder browser while it was open. Neither survives
the media this pane is about to hold (a CD, a SACD image).

Row 1 of the header now carries two menus, both `CardMenu` (the shared menu
surface, no new component):

  - `Open`, always present, is the one door for every medium. Only "Open
    folder…" is wired here; the disc entries land with their readers.
  - `Refresh` replaces the Plex-only re-sync icon (#573). Rows are APPENDED
    per configured source rather than rendered disabled, so a user with no
    media servers sees local folders and nothing else. It needed no new Rust:
    `plexAvailable`, `mediaHasJellyfin`, `mediaHasSubsonic`, `syncPlex()`,
    `mediaSync()` and the settings' own "library-scan" all already existed.

The ephemeral session becomes a tab of its own, present only while a session
is. Two failure modes are handled because the tab can VANISH under the user:
closing the session falls back to Albums instead of leaving `activeTab` on a
tab with no body, and opening one navigates to it — while the pane was an arm
of Folders that was implicit, and with a tab of its own, opening a folder from
Albums would otherwise do nothing visible.

`load_tab_impl` gains an "ephemeral" arm: nothing to load (the session is in
memory), but without the arm every switch to the tab logged "unknown tab",
which is what a real routing bug looks like.

Driven under Xvfb, not inferred: both menus open, the gated rows match the
configured servers, opening lands on the tab, the badges read DSD64, closing
removes the tab and falls back to Albums, and the folder tree is now visible
WITH a session open.

vicrodh f3a33245b2 feat(qbz-qt): staged loading, skeletons everywhere, lyrics, gestures, richer menus
**Deferred external rows.** The album page awaited the Last.fm row before
publishing anything, so the tracklist waited on an external service plus
MusicBrainz. It publishes in stages now — header and tracks first, then each
Qobuz rail as it lands, then Last.fm — with every patch merged under a
generation counter so a late reply for album A cannot paint onto album B. The
artist page was already staged this way; its views were the part still showing
bare "Loading…" text.

**Skeletons as the standard.** One control, new variants rather than new
components, mounted across the views. Its second job is the one the owner
named: cleanup. A cover that never resolves settles the placeholder once and
reveals the card's own empty state instead of shimmering forever — local albums
with no embedded art produce no artwork entry at all, so a placeholder gated
only on "not arrived yet" would never stop.

**Local artwork streams.** Fifteen seconds to first cover on a 1274-album grid
was one batch emitted after the whole window resolved. Each cover emits as it
resolves now, visible band before prefetch margin.

**Lyrics migrated.** Smooth sync instead of a 1 Hz tick, word-level karaoke
where the document carries it, the surrounding-line dimming, the controls
flyout and the translation layer the v10 backend already supported. Exactly one
row subscribes to the 30 Hz output; the timer drops to 250ms when paused or
hidden.

**Navigation by mouse and touchpad.** Side buttons and a two-finger horizontal
swipe, matching #653 — including the part that matters, which is that a swipe
over a carousel scrolls the carousel. The layer is declared first in the shell
so everything else gets first refusal.

**Context menus.** Brought to the Slint inventory, Play later included, with
right-click opening the same menu as the button everywhere. Entries whose seam
does not exist are hidden rather than shipped inert.

Two controls that rendered and no-opped are now honestly disabled: the My QBZ
nav row, which routes to a view the shell has no case for, and three sidebar
menu entries with no backing call.

The sidebar caret was never a condition bug. The row is a positioner and the
name cell's width ignored the count label, so a folder WITH content pushed the
chevron past the clip — which is why it vanished exactly when it mattered.

vicrodh e0fcf7a089 fix(qbz-qt): local context menus, collapsing search fields, toolbar density
Four things the owner hit in Local Library.

The context menu did nothing there — local rows and cards now mount the shared
menu the rest of the app uses, with the action set Slint gives local and Plex
items. Anything with no seam in this port (add-to-playlist, add-to-mixtape, the
tag editor, local favourites) is hidden or visibly disabled rather than a row
that silently does nothing.

The per-view search fields did not open and collapse the way the header's does.
That behaviour moved into the shared QbzLineEdit, so the Local toolbar, the
queue and the tree rail all get it from one place instead of four copies. The
queue's field also escaped its 300px column; it is width-bound now.

Filter, sorting and grouping become icon-only buttons with an explanatory
tooltip, which is what the owner asked for and what the crowding called for.

Found on the way, and affecting Qobuz cards too: the album card's ⋯ menu had no
"Play later" at all, and its "Add to queue" row dispatched play-later — the row
lied about what it did. Both fixed, with Slint's icon set for the three.

vicrodh 31b1484c01 feat(qbz-qt): Local Library complete — five tabs, routed album page, Plex
The view had roughly a folder tree and an album grid inside one 1,847-line
file. Slint's is 2,671 lines across five tabs, and the local album detail is a
routed page of its own. This closes that gap and splits the result: the view
becomes a composition root over qml/views/local/ modules, and
local_library_qt.rs becomes a narrow facade over local_* modules by concern.

Plex is wired for real. The port hardcoded the cache path to None, so the union
was local-only and Plex thumbnails were skipped. The settings store binds per
user at session activation, the album and track union includes Plex, thumbnails
resolve through the artwork path, rows carry their source badge, and the manual
re-sync is on the toolbar behind the availability gate — as in Slint.

Tabs: Albums with its quality/format/source filter popup, Tracks paginated,
Folders in both flat and two-pane tree modes, Artists as an A-Z master/detail.
Every list is windowed from the start, artwork id-keyed and evicted, because
16k tracks is exactly where the Slint build freezes.

The tree grows a real select mode with its bulk bar, the ad-hoc "ephemeral
folder" pane plays music that was never indexed, and the album page gets its
version picker — a local album with two physical copies now switches between
them without a database round-trip.

Two agents built the QML and the Rust halves in parallel and the QML called
thirty QbzLocal members that did not exist. QML resolves lazily, so each would
have been a control that renders and does nothing; a static cross-reference
caught them before a build ever ran, and they are implemented here.

Deliberately logged seams, not half-paths: add-to-playlist, add-to-mixtape and
the tag editor have no picker or modal in this port yet, and local favourites
are not wired, so those actions log rather than route a local id into the Qobuz
API. Plex playback downloads the part instead of range-streaming it, which is
Slint's own documented fallback.
