Item 94. The query row is the six built-in filters (Unread, Inbox,
Important, Sent, Drafts, Trash), which compose with the account
dropdown, and every saved query lives in the More queries menu. Nothing
has to decide which of the user's queries get button space, which is the
question item 93 would otherwise have had to answer.
SavedQuery::pinned is gone from the struct, the reader, the writer, the
save dialog's checkbox and the pin/unpin context action.
The stored key is stripped rather than left ignored, at the user's
choice. That has one non-obvious requirement: `pinned` stays named in
loadSavedQueries' `known` list precisely so it is NOT collected as an
unknown field, since those are preserved and written straight back. A
mutation removing that name puts the key in the file for ever.
Confirmed with the user before starting that the built-in set covers
their use, since removing pinning removes the escape hatch this item was
blocked on.
Tests: four pinning tests replaced by two on the new rule, four more
converted from buttons to menu entries. migrationPinsEveryEntry and
aStoredGeneratedQueryIsUnpinnedNotDropped are rewritten around the
property that outlived the flag rather than deleted: an entry must be
KEPT, which is what both assertions were really guarding.

Item 82. Saving a query worked and nothing else did: changing one field meant
retyping the whole query under the same name, and deleting one meant editing
the file by hand. An action that creates something the UI cannot then change or
remove is incomplete, and the user hit it within minutes of the first hand test.
Right-clicking a saved query, on its button or its menu entry, now offers Edit,
Move to menu / Show as a button, and Delete. Every path funnels through one
replaceSavedQuery(), which matches on the name the dialog was OPENED with rather
than the one it returns, so a rename replaces the entry instead of leaving the
original behind beside a new one, and which merges the stored entry's unknown
fields in a single place rather than in three. Delete confirms first: the rule
against confirmation dialogs covers tag mutations, which the undo stack can take
back, and this writes user config that it cannot.
Two cases the item did not anticipate. A generated entry has no query to edit,
so the dialog shows its composed query read-only rather than offering a field
that changes nothing, and carries `generated` and `flat` through an edit rather
than letting it decay into a plain entry holding a snapshot of what it resolved
to today. And the overwrite notice had to learn to ignore the entry being
edited, since warning that "Inbox" already exists while editing Inbox is noise.
This also fixes a defect that predated it and was already reachable from the
save path. rebuildSavedQueryRow() called deleteLater() on the old row, which
defers destruction to the event loop, so the stale row went on answering
findChild() and every lookup after a rebuild reported the state from before the
edit. Nothing looked wrong on screen, which is why it surfaced only as three
tests failing against a row that had in fact been rebuilt correctly.
Five tests, three mutations. Matching on the returned name fails two, never
writing the file fails three, and dropping the unknown-field merge fails one.
That last one initially proved nothing: it drove UNPIN, which copies the stored
entry and so carries `unknown` along by itself, and passed with the merge
deleted. It now goes through the edit path with a replacement that has none,
which is what the dialog actually returns.

Second half of item 23, on top of the storage change. A query can now be kept
without hand-editing a file, and the row of buttons no longer grows without
bound.
Ctrl+S opens a dialog on whatever is in the query bar, taking a name, an
optional account scope and whether the query is pinned. It preselects the
account already chosen in the dropdown, since that is the scope the user is
looking at, and it says so when a name is about to replace an existing query
rather than refusing the name: overwriting a saved query on purpose is a normal
edit, and the only thing worth preventing is doing it without noticing. Saving
over an entry keeps the stored entry's unknown fields rather than the dialog's
fresh value, so a field written by a later build survives being edited here.
The saved queries move to a row of their own beneath the query bar, pinned ones
as buttons and the rest behind a More queries menu that only exists when
something is in it. The ponytail note that stood in the query row predicted
exactly this: an unbounded list of buttons sharing the row squeezed the field.
Sent moves down with them and is still not a saved query, for the reason already
recorded there.
A saved query's account scope goes through the account DROPDOWN rather than
being baked into the query text. runQuery() already wraps the query in the
selected account's path, so pre-scoping here would apply it twice, and setting
the dropdown also shows the user which scope they are in. An unscoped query
clears the selection rather than inheriting whatever the last one left, which is
the same defect the rules preview had.
Seven tests, three mutations. Ignoring the pinned flag fails two of them,
pre-scoping the text instead of setting the dropdown fails two, and letting an
unscoped query inherit the previous account fails one. The menu-absence test
initially passed against no implementation at all, since it only asserted a
widget was missing; it now proves the row was populated first, which is the
guard that class of test needs.
Two existing invariants caught real omissions rather than needing adjustment:
every registered action must appear in KeyMap::knownActions(), which is what
gives it a configurable binding, and every action needs its own icon.
