Real Maildir account keys had reached comments and test data:
provider-and-mailbox names across three source files, one of them
carrying a surname, plus a real address used as example data in the
notmuch test fixture and the design spec.
The user's standing rule is that maildir and account names never reach a
commit, and this is about to become a public repository, which is what
makes it consequential rather than untidy. Replaced with generic keys
that carry the same shape, since the length is the point in every one of
these comments: a 33-character account tag is why the chip label exists
and why the tag column was removed.
The measurements stay. They are the evidence behind those decisions and
are not personal details.

Tagging changes the notmuch index at once, but the mail store only hears
about it on the next sync, and nothing said so. Quitting with tagging
outstanding was silent. Items 18 and 19 of the usability backlog, built
together because the second needs the first's counter.
The counter cannot be QUndoStack::isClean(), which is the obvious
candidate and the wrong one: the undo stack is cleared on every query,
since its entries refer to rows the new result set discards. Tag a
thread, run any query, and the stack is empty while the change is still
unsynced. m_pendingEdits is its own count, incremented where a write is
CONFIRMED rather than where one is sent, so an optimistic update the
worker later rejects cannot leave the indicator claiming an edit that
never landed. Only a successful sync resets it: clearing on failure would
assert the changes had reached the mail store when the sync is exactly
what failed to put them there.
It is shown in the status bar, hidden entirely at zero, and described as
a lower bound rather than a guarantee, since an external notmuch run can
carry changes over without this application noticing.
On exit, sync_on_exit in [general] takes ask, always or never. Three
values rather than a bool because "prompt me", "just do it" and "do
nothing" are three behaviours and true/false expresses two; an unknown
value warns by name, since a typo there silently changes what happens to
unsynced work. The prompt offers three buttons for the same reason: a
user who hit Quit by mistake needs a way back that is not "sync". A sync
started at exit holds the window open until it finishes rather than being
killed mid-run, and a sync that FAILS does not quit, because quitting
there would discard the user's choice silently. With no sync command
configured the prompt degrades to a plain warning instead of offering a
sync that cannot run.
This is not a destructive-action confirmation of the kind CLAUDE.md
forbids. Those cover tag mutations, which keep undo instead of a dialog.
This asks about losing work at the one point where undo cannot help.
The tagsApplied lambda became a named slot, which is better structure and
also what lets a test drive it: the worker is deliberately parentless
because it moves to its own thread, so reaching it with findChild to emit
the real signal cannot work, and contorting the test to try was the wrong
instinct. Testing a modal needed its own care. A test that sends a close
event hangs forever if an unexpected dialog opens, because the modal
spins its own event loop; CloseProbe polls for activeModalWidget, closes
it and records that one appeared, turning "a dialog opened" into an
assertion rather than a hang.
Also removes a stray qDebug left in the open_thread action by the earlier
Enter-key investigation, which had reached two commits.

Opening a thread left it tagged unread, so the unread count never
matched what had actually been read and the app was quietly wrong every
day it was used. Item 6 of the usability backlog.
A single-shot timer, armed when a thread is selected and restarted rather
than stacked, so arrowing down a list marks only the thread still
selected when it fires and not every one passed through. Configurable
through mark_read_delay_ms in [general], defaulting to 2000: zero marks
read at once, and any negative value disables the behaviour, which is why
the value is neither clamped nor warned about at either end.
The automatic change deliberately does NOT go on the undo stack. It
routes through sendThreadTagChange() rather than tagSelected(), because
undoing an action the user never took is worse than leaving a thread
read, and toggle_unread already gives them a direct way back. It still
funnels through the single applyTags path; what differs is only whether
the inverse is pushed, which is a window-level decision above the worker.
An explicit toggle_unread cancels any pending timer, or marking a thread
unread by hand would be reversed a moment later and the key would look
broken.
Two guards beyond the plan, both from asking what happens when a timer
outlives the thread it was armed for. Arming is skipped for a thread that
is not unread, so no write is scheduled that would change nothing, and
the handler re-checks that its thread is still selected and still unread
before writing, so a stale timer does nothing rather than tagging the
wrong thread.
The plan expected the rapid-arrow case to need a database and a manual
check. It needs neither: ThreadListModel takes threads through
appendBatch(), so the case is unit-tested. All three tests were confirmed
to fail against deliberately broken versions, one arming for read threads
and one creating a timer per selection instead of restarting one.
Item 7 is closed in the same pass. The user verified against real mail
that HTML messages already open as HTML, which is what the item asked
for, so it is recorded as done with no code changed. The prefer_html key
it floated was not added: nobody has asked to default to plain text, and
Ctrl+H already switches a thread by hand.

Mimetypes are the one completion list with no enumerator, so the user can
extend it. Entries append to the built-ins and a malformed one is skipped
with a problem recorded rather than dropping the whole list.

The app opened whichever saved query sorted first alphabetically, which
is not a choice anyone made: [queries] is read through childKeys(), so
savedQueries().first() means "Flagged" before "Inbox" before "Unread"
rather than anything the user expressed.
[general] startup_query names the entry to open and defaults to Unread,
so a fresh install comes up on the unified unread list. Saved-query
button order is untouched and stays alphabetical.
A name matching no saved query falls back to the first one rather than
starting with an empty view. That is reported as a problem only when the
user actually wrote the name; the built-in default naming a query they
never created is not something they got wrong, and warning about it
would fire on every launch of a config that has no Unread entry.

Zoom was Chromium's, not the application's: the web view handled the
keys natively and never told anyone, so there was no value to save.
qtmaildir now owns it. Zoom in, out and reset are real actions, in the
View menu and rebindable through [keys], and the factor is persisted to
the UI state file. Ctrl+wheel over the body zooms and Ctrl+middle-click
resets, both filtered by ancestry from an application-level filter: the
events are delivered to an internal QQuickWidget the web view creates
lazily, so a filter on the view itself never sees them.
The factor is clamped to 0.5 - 3.0, and NaN, infinity, zero and negative
values fall back to 1.0, since a corrupt state file must not be able to
leave the pane unreadable with no visible way back.
Both risks the plan flagged turned out not to exist, verified by probe
rather than assumed. The application QAction wins over the web view's
native zoom key, so the tracked factor cannot diverge from what is on
screen. And the factor survives setHtml(), so the web view is the single
source of truth and needs no reapply per render.
A third finding is worth recording because it produced a wrong fix
first. A probe using QTest::keyClick() reported Ctrl++ as a dead
binding, and a test was written asserting that. Both were wrong: Ctrl++
is exactly what the '+' key emits on an Italian layout, confirmed
against the real keyboard, and it is the shipped default. Whether a
symbol needs Shift is a property of the layout, not of Qt, and
keyClick() reproduces neither. The test now only checks that every
default parses, and the comment in defaultBindings() says not to
re-derive this from synthetic input.
Ctrl+= is a second binding for reset, skipped when [keys] gives it to
something else.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug the new config key exposed. [general]
entries were read as "general/<key>", which matches nothing: QSettings'
INI backend treats a section literally named [general] as its own
fallback section and strips the prefix. notmuch_config had therefore
never worked. Both keys are now read without it; the file format is
unchanged.

Two optional keys in an [account.<key>] stanza. color fills the chip,
label sets its text.
Both belong to the account rather than to [tagcolors] because an account
tag is a different taxonomy: which mailbox a thread arrived in, not what
state it is in.
label is display only. "account-provider-work" is a lot of
row for one bit of information, but the notmuch tag is never renamed, so
existing queries and external tagging are unaffected. Unset falls back to
the account key, and an empty label is ignored rather than rendering a
blank chip.

Confirmed with the maintainer as v2-only rather than v2-or-later. LICENSE is
the official text from gnu.org. Every file under src/ and tests/ carries the
matching notice.

Found while walking the task 13 checklist against real mail. Item 1
("startup shows no configuration warnings with a valid config") failed:
with a perfectly valid config that simply had no [sync] command, every
launch opened a blocking modal that had to be dismissed before the window
could be used.
Config now separates the two cases. A problem is something configured but
wrong (a sync command that does not exist, an account with no maildir);
those still open a dialog, as does every KeyMap warning, since each one
means a binding the user wrote is being ignored. A notice is an optional
feature simply not being configured; it reports to the status bar only.
Nothing is broken in that case, and a modal on every launch teaches the
user to dismiss dialogs unread, which defeats the ones that matter.
problems() is a subset of warnings(), so callers wanting everything need
only the latter.

Accounts use [account.work] rather than [account/work]: QSettings' INI
backend treats "/" as its own hierarchical group separator, so a literal
slash in a section header parses as a nested group and trips
QSettings::FormatError, silently breaking childGroups() enumeration. A
dot carries no such meaning and keeps the format flat.
Saved-query order is alphabetical (QSettings::childKeys() sorts), not
file order; documented in code and tests rather than left to a false
assumption.
