+/// Where everything on a card goes, with no painting and no widget.
+///
+/// Split out from CardDelegate on purpose. A delegate needs a live QPainter and
+/// an exposed view before it draws anything, which is what makes delegate tests
+/// fragile: CLAUDE.md records that viewport()->render() returns a blank image in
+/// several ordinary situations, and that a probe reporting "no ink anywhere" is
+/// far more likely broken than the code it is testing. Every geometric claim
+/// about a card is therefore made here, where a test is a function call.
+///
+/// The card is three lines, always:
+///
+/// sender ................................ date <- senderRect/dateRect
+/// * subject @ v 3 replies <- subjectRect/expanderRect
+/// [tag] [tag] <- tagRect
+struct CardLayout
