The five real account colours are all mid-tone, because they were chosen as
CHIP fills with legible text on top, and three pixels of a mid-tone colour
barely registers beside a card's own background. The bar now lifts saturation
and lightness to a floor.
A floor, not a repaint: a colour already past it is returned untouched, so a
deliberately vivid choice is preserved and only the muted ones move. Hue is
never altered, because hue is the entire information the bar carries and a
shifted one would stop matching the account's chip and its dropdown swatch.
0.65 and 0.50 were chosen by rendering all five accounts as 3px bars against
both a dark and a light card background and looking at them. Higher pushed the
weakest of them, a green at S 0.33, toward a neon that no longer matched its own
chip; lower left it where it started.
accentLineColour had no test at all until now, which is how two earlier versions
of it shipped wrong: one blended toward Base until it WAS the background, the
other passed a chip colour through unchanged. test_carddelegate covers the lift,
the floor's idempotence, hue preservation across all five accounts, and the
fallback for a thread with no account tag.

Four faults from the first hand test, two of them behavioural.
An expander that opened onto nothing. setThreadMessages kept only nodes with
depth > 0, and notmuch_thread_get_toplevel_messages returns every message at
depth 0 when a thread carries no usable In-Reply-To, so a flat thread
contributed no children while its card still advertised the count. Measured in
the user's database: of 396 inbox threads three are flat, one of them nine
messages long, and every two-message thread of that kind was affected, which is
exactly why the fault looked like "the expander only works with more than one
reply". The rule is now position, not depth: every message except the first,
which is the root card itself. That is also the correct rule rather than a
workaround, since the row under the root is the second message however notmuch
chose to nest it.
The thread's first message was unreachable. Selecting a root card loaded the
whole thread, so the pane showed every message with only the last expanded, and
no row in the list offered the first one: the reply rows are messages two
onward. The root card now renders its own message, which is what the card
already claims to be. It keeps its thread id, unlike the message-row path, so
mark-read and the tag-change repaint still work; that is asserted, because
clearing it is the obvious way to write this and silently disables both. Before
the replies are loaded the model has no first message to name and the whole
thread stays the honest answer.
Dates ignored the locale. One hardcoded "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm" produced a US-looking
format on an Italian desktop; QLocale::system() now formats it, and the width
reserved for the date comes from the same function so a longer locale cannot
clip.
The expander was a bare number on the card's own background. It is a pill now,
carrying "3 replies" (and "1 reply", singular), sized from the label actually
drawn and measured in both glyph states so it does not resize under the pointer
on click. Its fill is blended from Text toward Base rather than taken from
QPalette::Button, which is #2b2b2b against a Base of #2b2b2b on the user's
theme: byte identical, so the pill was invisible. A theme may make any two roles
equal; a blend is defined against the surface it sits on and cannot collide with
it. Checked by rendering both a dark and a light palette and looking.

Both found by rendering real cards to an image and looking at them, not by any
assertion. The suite was green through both.
The date lost the leading digit of its year on every UNREAD card. The layout
reserves the date's width from the font it is handed, which is the view's
regular font, while the delegate paints with the bold one the model supplies for
unread: 154px reserved against 170px needed. CardLayout now measures the date
bold whatever font it is given, so the reserved width cannot be narrower than
what is drawn. A few pixels are wasted on a read card, which is the cheap side of
the trade.
The accent bar was painted correctly and was invisible. Blending the account
colour 0.35 toward the palette's Base, as the plan specified, is a fraction OF
THE ACCOUNT COLOUR, so on a dark theme it produced (0.18, 0.22, 0.26) against a
Base of (0.169, 0.169, 0.169): the background. The blend is dropped entirely.
An account colour is already chosen to be a chip's fill carrying legible text,
so it is muted to begin with, and nothing is drawn on the bar that needs that
contrast. The spine keeps a blend, at 0.55, because it runs the full height of
every reply in an expansion and is a different problem from a 3px edge marker.
The bar is still faint at 3px on a dark theme, since the account colours are
chosen as chip fills. Whether kAccentWidth needs raising cannot be settled
without the user's own accounts, screen and theme; that is Task 10's open
question and it is left open.

Replaces SubjectDelegate. The tag chips come home from the view: the strip was
painted there only because a delegate cannot paint outside its column and the
strip spanned all five, and with one column there is nothing to span.
RowStyleDelegate is inherited rather than dropped. Its job survives the
redesign: Qt resolves ForegroundRole into the palette's Text roles and prefers
those over HighlightedText, so the read/unread dimming would win on a selected
row and land as grey on the highlight. What it loses is the rest of its body,
which aligned cells against a text band and centred two marker columns; both
described a grid that no longer exists.
A reply's Re: prefix is stripped here. Every reply repeating the thread's
subject is the visual signature of a table of records, which is the thing item
53 is about.
The account chip becomes a bar down the card's left edge, and the reply spines
inherit its colour, so an expanded thread is bounded by one accent from its root
to its last reply without a second line in the gutter. Neither uses the raw
account colour: that colour is chosen to be a chip's fill with legible text on
top, and the same value as a thin line has to be followable down an expansion
without competing with the senders, so it is blended toward the palette's Base
by the weight threadLineColour() already uses. A reply resolves its THREAD's
colour by walking to the root, since AccountColourRole is empty on a message
row and a neutral spine under an accented root would break the continuous edge.
The build is red at this commit; the view and window still name the old
delegate.
