setThreadMessages drops the depth-0 message: it is the thread's first message
and the root row already stands for it. Keeping it would show a thread of seven
as one root and seven children, contradicting the reply count the row
advertises. Calling again replaces rather than appends, so a thread reloaded
after a sync does not list its replies twice.
A message row reports its own sender and subject, not the thread's. That is the
mistake worth guarding: the thread's author summary usually contains the first
sender too, so reading it renders something plausible for the root's own reply
and wrong for every other one. Mutation-checked, and the wrong version returns
'Alice' where 'Bob' belongs.
Child rows carry no tag pills. The strip is a row-wide band of the thread's
tags; one under each reply would stripe the list and repeat identical tags down
the expansion.
|
|
A table cannot indent or expand, so message rows need a tree. This task changes
only the base class and the index plumbing: no children are produced yet, so the
30 pre-existing tests in test_threadlistmodel are the regression net proving a
thread row still behaves exactly as it did, and QAbstractItemModelTester checks
the index/parent round trip a hand-written assertion would miss.
Two things the table version could leave wrong and a tree cannot. columnCount
returned 0 for a valid parent, which would give message rows no columns and
render them blank. And rowCount now answers only for column 0, since a tree
takes one set of children per row and offering them under every column draws an
expander in each.
The model stays two levels deep even though replies carry a reply depth of their
own. The visual nesting past the first level comes from that depth, not from
further parent-child structure, so no index calculation has to recurse.

loadThread could not be extended to do this. It walks
notmuch_query_search_messages, and a message obtained that way returns NULL from
notmuch_message_get_replies (notmuch.h:1617-1628), so that walk cannot produce
reply depth at all. The tree comes from notmuch_thread_get_toplevel_messages
instead, and the pane keeps the flat list it wants.
walkReplies takes raw notmuch_message_t*, against this file's rule that every
handle is RAII-owned. Messages reached through a thread are freed with it
(notmuch.h:1637), so an NmMessage wrapper would destroy memory the thread frees
again. The NmThread in the caller is what keeps them alive.
Every message in the thread gets a node regardless of the query: the list is
where the reply count is read, and hiding unmatched replies would make that
count disagree with the rows under it.
Both tests mutation-checked. Flattening depth fails the depth assertion, and
skipping the thread walk fails it too, so neither passes against the two
mistakes the notmuch API invites.
|
|
A message row has to be drawn without opening the message, so it needs sender,
subject and date. MessageRef carries none of them: it exists for rendering a
thread into the pane and holds only id, path, tags and matched.
depth defaults to 0, the thread's first message, which the root row stands for
rather than a child row. threadId is carried so a batch of nodes names the
thread it belongs to without the caller tracking it alongside.

A splitter position is saved in pixels, so one saved in a wide window
does not fit a narrower one: QSplitter::restoreState() honours the first
pane's saved size verbatim and gives the second whatever is left. A real
1285/1252 split restored into a 1136px window left the message pane 29px
wide, a sliver of rendered mail beside a full-width thread list. The
wider the window ever was, the worse the next narrower session.
Fixed with a minimum width on the pane and setCollapsible(1, false),
which covers the restore and the equivalent drag. A restore-time repair
running from showEvent() was written first and deleted: with the floor
in place it was mutation-tested to be redundant, since the minimum width
constrains restoreState() as much as it constrains a drag.
The floor is 300px rather than a bare "visible" width, because it is
reached only when a position does not fit and should land somewhere mail
is readable; at 200 the placeholder's own text wraps every few words.
The test asserts against the pane's own minimumWidth() rather than a
repeated literal, with a guard on the floor itself so it cannot pass
against a lowered one.
Note for later work in test_mainwindow: the offscreen platform chooses
the window width itself and has been seen to choose differently between
two runs of the same binary (1181 and 779), and it ignores resize(),
setFixedWidth() and a resize of the splitter on a shown window. Any
assertion on a pane ratio, or on the second pane's pixels, is measuring
that choice rather than this code.
Backlog item 55, whose recorded cause blamed the thread view's size hint
and first-run layout. Measured, that hint is 256px, not the 886 the item
computed from the column widths, and a freshly built window splits
correctly; the entry has been corrected in place.

The documented 0.5 to 3.0 range was already enforced, by
MessageView::clampZoom(), so message_zoom = 500 rendered at 3.0 rather
than unusably. What was missing is the report: the key parses, so
nothing ever told the user that the value in their file is not the value
on screen.
Reported rather than clamped a second time. MessageView owns the bounds
and does the work; a copy of the range in Config would be free to drift
from the one that matters, so config.cpp reports against kMinZoom and
kMaxZoom directly. This is where it differs from toolbar_icon_size,
which has no widget-side enforcement to defer to.
Backlog item 58, whose recorded cause was wrong on this point and has
been corrected in place.

Item 59, reported by the user against 0.12.0. Archive and Mark all read
both used `mail-mark-read`, so with the toolbar following a desktop set
to icon-only the two buttons were indistinguishable, despite doing
different things: archive removes `inbox` from the selection, mark all
read removes `unread` from the whole view.
Introduced by item 56 in the same session. `archive` had that name from
before, when only eight actions carried icons, and item 56 assigned it
to `mark_all_read` as well without checking the table for duplicates.
`mail-archive` is also the more accurate name, since `mail-mark-read`
describes read state rather than archiving.
The test asserts the class rather than the reported pair: a hand-written
table of twenty-four names has more plausible duplicates in it, so
noTwoActionsShareAnIcon compares every action against every other. It
compares cacheKey() rather than the theme name, because two different
names resolving to the same art are equally ambiguous on screen, and it
guards on every action having an icon first, since on a theme that
resolves nothing the comparison loop would never run and pass vacuously.
Mutation-checked with a different collision.
Item 56's own probe is what let this through: it verified every name
resolves to non-null art, which is true of two names resolving to the
same art. Resolving and being distinguishable are separate properties.
The replacement was picked by rendering both at 24px and comparing the
images.

Follow-up to item 56. With the toolbar now following the desktop's
button style, an "icon only" desktop makes the icon the whole control,
and this style reports PM_ToolBarIconSize as 16px, which is a small
target for a button with no text beside it.
A [general] toolbar_icon_size key, 16 to 64, defaulting to 24 rather
than to the style's own metric. Setting it to 16 restores the theme's
value.
Clamped and reported, unlike message_zoom, which documents a 0.5 to 3.0
range in the README and enforces none of it. Both ends here break the
UI that would be used to fix them: too small is an invisible icon, too
large is a toolbar taller than the window.
The unenforced message_zoom range is recorded as item 58 rather than
fixed here, since it is a separate defect that predates this change.
Also documents in the README that saved-query button labels are the key
names from the user's own [queries] section, which is why the "Flagged"
button still read that way after the action was renamed: it is a user's
query name, not a string this code owns. The sample config now shows
`Important = tag:flagged` to teach the wording the UI uses.

Items 56 and 57, done together because both touch the action registry.
56. The complaint was inconsistency, not absence: eight of twenty-four
actions had themed icons, so two adjacent entries in one menu disagreed
and the toolbar laid out an empty slot for the other sixteen. The
themeIcons table now covers them all. The fifteen names added were
probed against a live icon theme first rather than taken from the
freedesktop spec on faith, and the existing null-icon guard still lets a
theme that lacks one fall back to text.
The second half of the note asked that buttons honour the desktop's
"Icon only" setting. They could not: the hardcoded setToolButtonStyle
overrode it whatever the user had chosen. It now reads
SH_ToolButtonStyle. Dropping the call entirely was tried and rejected,
since a bare QToolBar defaults to ToolButtonIconOnly rather than to the
platform hint, which ignores the setting just as thoroughly the other
way. This is a visible change: on a desktop set to "Icon only" the
toolbar now shows icons without text.
57. "Important" over "Starred", the user's pick; the Message menu
already has "Mark &spam", so "Starred" would have needed an accelerator
from inside the word. Changed the action text, its status tip, the undo
description and the star column's tooltip, which still read "Flagged".
The tag stays `flagged`. It is wire format that neomutt, the user's
saved queries and ThreadSummary::isFlagged() all read, and following the
label through to the tag would rewrite the mail store and desynchronise
every other tool over the same Maildir. The action name stays `flag`
too, since that is the key users write in [keys].
Four tests. everyActionCarriesAnIcon names every action missing one and
guards against passing on an empty list; it reported all sixteen before
the change. theImportantActionStillWritesTheFlaggedTag asserts on the
tag the model actually received, and mutating it to `important` fails
that test plus two pre-existing held-edit tests.
Also adds the changelog entry for the cron-sync indicator fix, which the
commit that made it omitted.

Item 54. A sync fired by the user's cron carries tag edits to the mail
store exactly as a local one does, but only onSyncFinished() cleared the
pending state, so the indicator kept reporting work that had already
shipped and the exit prompt asked to sync for it. Verified against a
real cron run: 31 changes, cleared with no manual sync.
The window cannot see an external run's exit status, and /proc/locks
carries no outcome. It does not need to: mailsync.sh already ends every
run with a "RUN END ... status=OK" banner in its log, which outlives the
process that wrote it. MailSync::lastRunOutcome() reads a bounded tail
of that file and takes the last completed marker, so no change to the
script and no optimistic guessing were needed.
Only a definite OK clears anything. A failed run, a missing or
unreadable log, and a State::Unknown lock reading all leave the count
alone: over-reporting costs a redundant sync, under-reporting costs the
user their edits.
m_editedAccounts is drained in the same place, before flushHeldEdits()
and matching the local path's ordering. Item 49 uses it to choose which
mbsync channels a run syncs, and a count that reached zero while the set
stayed full would look correct and still sync the wrong channels.
The log path comes from a new optional [sync] log key, defaulting to
where the script writes, so a test never reads the developer's own log.
Two notes on the verification, both recorded in the backlog:
- A timing probe endorsed a tail read that was not happening. The
first version of the huge-log test required the call under 100 ms
and passed with the seek deleted, because reading 10 MB is fast
either way. Replaced with an assertion on content.
- Every fixture was invented and the first batch had the wrong
timestamp format, since the script uses date -Iseconds. The tests
passed anyway, because the parser keys on the prefix and the status
token. One test now builds the banner the way the script does.
The before-flushHeldEdits ordering has no test: without a held lock the
flush is a no-op, so both orderings pass.

A sync ran mbsync -a regardless of what changed, so tagging mail in one
account fetched all of them. The account set was not a parameter anywhere
on the path: MailSync::start() took no arguments and the script hardcoded
-a, so nothing between a tag edit and mbsync carried which account changed.
Track which accounts have edits and pass their mbsync channels through to
the script, which now takes channel names and falls back to -a when given
none. An empty set means all accounts, per the request: a sync with nothing
pending is a fetch, and narrowing that to wherever the last edit landed
would quietly stop collecting mail everywhere else.
The channel is a new optional per-account key rather than the section key.
The two names genuinely diverge, because a QSettings section key may carry
dots that the channel does not, and mbsync treats an unknown channel as
fatal rather than skipping it, so key-as-channel would fail those accounts'
syncs outright rather than degrade. It defaults to the key, so accounts
whose two names already agree need no config change.
The edited-account set is deliberately not netted the way the pending-edit
map is: that map tracks the index, where a tag removed and re-added leaves
nothing outstanding, while this tracks the mail store, where both writes
have already renamed files that mbsync still has to propagate. It is also
snapshotted before flushHeldEdits(), which inserts into it synchronously
rather than on a queued reply, so a successful sync cannot clear accounts
whose edits it never carried.
Closes item 49.

Nothing in the UI reported database-level facts: every query gave a
thread count for that query, and nothing said how much mail there is
overall. A dialog under Help now shows messages, threads and tags from
notmuch, plus the account list from config, since notmuch does not model
accounts at all.
A separate worker call rather than a reuse of requestCounts, which counts
threads to match the row count of a query. This counts messages, which is
what a user means by "how much mail is in here". The test pins 4 messages
in 3 threads against the fixture and fails if they are ever made equal,
so routing both through one count cannot pass unnoticed.
Every field starts at -1 and renders as "unknown" when notmuch could not
answer it. Printing 0 would say the Maildir is empty, and telling someone
their mail is gone is the worst way to report an index that failed to
open.
The dialog opens showing "Counting..." rather than blocking, since
counting every message is not free on a large database. That makes two
lifetimes matter: the reply can arrive after the dialog is closed, so the
label is a QPointer, and the dialog can be closed and reopened while a
count runs, so a generation counter drops the older answer. The test
drains DeferredDelete before firing the late reply, because close()
deletes through deleteLater and without that the dangling case is never
actually reached.

Blanking the pane while leaving the row highlighted reads as half an
action, and deselecting is what Escape means nearly everywhere else. The
user asked for two actions rather than a changed one, so clear_pane keeps
its behaviour and moves to Shift+Esc; clear_selection takes Escape and
does both. Shift+Esc rather than unbound because every action carries a
default and a test enforces it.
Clearing the selection re-adopts the thread it just cleared, unless done
in exactly the right way. clearSelection() leaves currentIndex() valid,
so onSelectionChanged takes its "one or fewer rows" branch, sees a
current row whose id differs from m_currentThreadId, and calls
onThreadSelected for it. Clearing the selection before blanking lets that
run while the id still matches, so nothing reloads, and clearing current
stops a later collapse-to-one-row reaching the same row. All four
arrangements were tried; only this one passes.
The first version of the test could not distinguish any of them. It
asserted showingPlaceholder(), which passes regardless because this
fixture has no worker, so loadThread never replies and the pane is never
repainted. currentThreadId() and currentIndex() are observable without
one, and asserting those is what made the test discriminate.

An empty right pane said nothing, and multi-select made it a routine
sight. It now carries the wordmark, thread counts that run their query
when clicked, and a sync line that appears only when something needs
attention.
Rendered into the existing web view as a third document shape, so there
is one document path and one set of security rules. The brand palette is
a deliberate exception to deriving colours from the desktop theme, since
a logo is brand rather than chrome; the theme still picks which of the
two sets is used.
Counts refresh when the pane is about to show rather than in the
background: one goes stale the moment a tag is edited, and refreshing one
nobody is looking at is work for nothing. A generation counter discards a
superseded reply, and a late answer cannot repaint over an opened thread.
The helper lines are real links because JavaScript is off in this
profile. The handler is gated on the placeholder actually being
displayed, so the same URL inside a message body is dropped: a stranger's
mail must not drive the thread list, even to run a harmless query.
Three defects found while building, all silent:
- Every CSS percentage was invalid. QString::arg does not collapse "%%"
into "%", so the document carried "50%%" and the browser dropped each
declaration holding one, disabling the mask, the glow and both radial
gradients while still rendering something plausible. Substitution is by
named token now, which cannot collide with a percent sign.
- A geometry probe endorsed the layout while that was live, because it
measured only properties without percentages.
- The font test passed against a build with one face missing, since the
other satisfied both of its checks on its own.
The mockup's light values needed correcting against a real pane: the grid
vanished at a 2% luminance step on white, and the glow subtracts light
there rather than adding it, washing the pane. Strength only, not hue.

The thread list was uniform and cramped: every row one line tall, with
nothing to say what a thread was about before opening it. Rows are now
roughly double height, carrying a strip of tag chips beneath the text,
with alternating row colours and a star column for flagged threads
beside the existing paperclip.
The strip is painted by the VIEW rather than by a delegate, which is
why ThreadListView exists. A delegate is handed one cell's rectangle
and cannot paint outside its column, so a strip drawn from the subject
column stops at that column's edge, losing the last tags of a
well-tagged thread, and starts at its left edge, putting the chips
under the subject instead of under the row.
Tags the row already shows another way are left out: inbox as
structure, unread as the dimming, flagged as the star, attachment as
the paperclip, and the account as the chip in the subject cell. Sorted,
since notmuch's order is not guaranteed stable and a row whose chips
reordered between repaints would flicker.
Six defects were introduced and fixed on the way here, all of them one
consequence: a QTableView paints per cell, and a row-wide strip is not
a cell. SubjectDelegate installed view-wide drew the account chip into
every column, since AccountLabelRole belongs to the row; it is split
into RowStyleDelegate for every column and SubjectDelegate for the
subject alone, with a Q_ASSERT guarding that. Row height returned from
sizeHint did nothing, because a table takes one height per row. The
strip painted from x=0 over the marker columns, via a protected
viewportMargins() that returns 0. Measuring the text band and the strip
with one font put the pills over the date. Alternating colours and the
selection are per-cell too, so the band showed bare viewport background
until the view filled it, honouring the model's own BackgroundRole
first so a deleted row is not cut in half. And that fill spanned the
full width, cutting the centred marker glyphs at their midpoint.
Closes item 5.

Bold was unread's only cue, and it renders identically to regular on the
user's system: confirmed by eye against a bare QTableView holding a
plain QStandardItemModel, with no code from this project involved. The
fault is in Qt or fontconfig, below this application, and nothing in the
model could ever have reached it. Read and unread mail looked exactly
alike.
The emphasis is inverted instead. Unread rows keep the palette's own
text colour and read rows are dimmed toward the background, so the cue
rides on Qt::ForegroundRole, which the delegate already honours, and
costs no column. It also suits the real ratio, measured at 99 unread
against 4220 read: dimming the bulk is calmer than highlighting it. The
dim colour is derived from the palette, never hardcoded, per the rule
item 12 established. Bold is kept for systems where it works, but
nothing depends on it now.
That exposed a second defect, visible the moment it shipped. Qt resolves
ForegroundRole into the palette and then prefers it over
HighlightedText, so a model-supplied colour wins on a SELECTED row too.
The dim is blended against the unselected background, so a selected read
row painted grey on the selection colour, near unreadable.
SubjectDelegate::initStyleOption now reverses that, and the delegate is
installed view-wide rather than on the subject column alone, so every
column gets the same handling instead of three of them keeping Qt's
ordering.
The guarding tests state the property rather than the mechanism: strip
the font from the model's answer and the two states must still differ.
A test asserting only that bold is set passes on a system where bold
paints like regular, which is exactly how this survived. The selection
test renders two rows identical but for the unread tag, selects both,
and requires zero differing pixels.
Part of item 5; the density work and the star column remain.

The stylesheet hardcoded #bbb, #555, #000, #666, #ddd and #4a6f8a, and
set no background at all, so on a dark desktop plain-text mail rendered
as black on white inside a dark window and the web view's own default
showed through.
The colours now come from a Palette struct derived from QPalette, and
are passed into the builder rather than read from qApp inside it, so
the stylesheet can be tested against a known palette with no running
application. Base and Text rather than Window and WindowText: the pane
is a content surface like a text edit, and on many themes those differ.
The secondary colours are blends of text and background, not fixed
greys. That is the part that makes it work both ways round, since a
#555 chosen to read as subtle on white is nearly invisible on #2b2b2b.
The quote colour keeps its hue, because "this is quoted" is carried by
being a different colour rather than a dimmer one, but is pulled toward
the background so it stays readable instead of glowing on dark.
A sender's own HTML is deliberately left alone, and a test asserts that
so it cannot drift: rewriting a sender's styling would break layouts
that depend on it, and a newsletter setting a white background is
entitled to stay white. This themes the plain-text render and the
chrome around messages, nothing more.
MessageView passes its own widget palette rather than the
application's, since a style sheet or a themed parent can give the pane
different colours from qApp, and re-renders on PaletteChange: the
document's colours are baked into its stylesheet at build time, so
unlike a widget it does not restyle itself when the desktop theme
changes.
The load-bearing test asserts the negative, that no hex colour appears
in the style block which the palette did not supply. A test checking
only that the palette's colours are present passes with a leftover
literal still there, and one leftover literal is the whole defect.
Confirmed by mutation.
Closes item 12.

An action removing "unread" from every thread in the current view,
on the toolbar, the Message menu and Ctrl+Shift+U. It deliberately
ignores the selection, which makes it the one action in the window
that does, and it routes through the same funnel as every other tag
change, so it is one write rather than one per thread.
Disabled until the query reports its total. Threads arrive in batches,
so before then the model holds only what has landed, and an action
saying "all" must not silently skip the rest. A greyed control says
"not yet" without needing a dialog or a stall the user cannot see.
The state is also set at registration, since QAction starts enabled
and a window that has not run a query has nothing to act on.
Two things came out differently from the plan, both forced by existing
code. It carries a default binding, because everyActionHasAShortcut
requires every registered action to have one: an unbound action is
unreachable from the keyboard, and that invariant is deliberate, so the
action was given Ctrl+Shift+U rather than the invariant relaxed. And
only the threads that are actually unread are sent, because sending the
rest would inflate the pending-edit count with writes that change
nothing, and the quit prompt reads that count. A view with nothing
unread does nothing, pushes no command and says so: an undo entry that
restores nothing is worse than none, since it absorbs a Ctrl+Z meant
for the previous action.
undoDepthForTesting() is new and exists for a reason worth recording:
undo->isEnabled() cannot answer "was a command pushed", because the
undo QAction is always enabled and tests canUndo() when triggered. The
first version of the no-op test asserted on it and passed against a
mutant with the unread filter removed.

"Syncing..." was set once and never updated, so a run that takes over a
minute reported nothing about what it was doing.
The original diagnosis in the backlog was half wrong, and two further
wrong ones were made and discarded before the real cause: plain
"mbsync -a" prints NOTHING until it exits, then a single summary line.
Measured on a real run, one line at 11:11:08 then 73 within the second
11:11:33, at the end of a 46-second run. So there was no stream to read
for the part of a sync that takes time. It is not buffering, so stdbuf
changes nothing, and the account name is not unavailable either, which
was the second wrong conclusion.
mbsync -V is what changes both: it announces each channel as it reaches
it, which is at once the progress and the account name originally
asked for. The shipped script now passes it.
SyncPhaseTracker derives a short status from the output as it streams:
the channel being synced, the summary counts when mbsync ends, then the
notmuch reindex. It lives beside MailSync rather than in the window so
the matching rules are one testable thing, and it holds no widget.
Matching is loose and case-insensitive, since the wording varies by
version, and nothing in it decides success or failure: the exit status
remains the only authority on that.
Lines are reassembled in MainWindow before being fed, because
QProcess::readAll() splits wherever it happens to and a half-line would
match nothing. Every status is sanitised and truncated: the channel
name comes from a config file this app does not own, and a long one
must not stretch the status bar.
Two defects in existing code, fixed with it. setSyncBusy(true) ran
after start(), so a fast run's output arrived before the per-run reset
and wiped its own phase. And a first draft deferred phases while a
transient message showed, which let a "Background sync completed"
message armed before the sync began suppress the whole run: a running
sync's state outranks an expiring event message.
Verified by replaying real captured mbsync -V output through the
tracker, not only against fixtures. The MainWindow test paces its
script with sleeps, since a script that prints everything at once
arrives in one readyRead and makes every intermediate phase
unobservable.

collectParts() filed any part with a Content-Id into inlineParts and
returned before the text/plain and text/html branches. Setting a
Content-Id on the text/html body is legal and common in bulk-sender
output, and such a message parsed with both body slots empty, so
hasHtml() was false, HtmlBuilder fell through to an empty plain body,
and the pane rendered nothing. Both halves of the report, the blank
message and "no HTML part", came from that one ordering.
A content id makes a part referenceable, not undisplayable. The two are
independent. The branch now registers the part and falls through rather
than returning, so the body still fills its slot. Registering first
keeps a part that is both the body and a cid: target reachable under
its id for any sibling referencing it.
Content-Disposition is deliberately not used as the discriminator: it
is absent far more often than it is correct, and a body part commonly
carries none. The existing attachment check remains the only test for
"not a body", and the first-one-wins isEmpty() guard still stops an
inline image displacing a real body, since an image matches neither
text branch.
Verified against a hand-written fixture whose text/html part carries a
Content-Id, asserting the body renders, the id still resolves, and the
sibling image is unaffected. Load-bearing by mutation: restoring the
early return fails the test. The user could not relocate the message
that prompted the report, so the end-to-end path is unconfirmed.

Both TagDialog fields built their completer from knownTags, the whole
database's tag list, so removing a tag offered every tag in existence
rather than the handful the selected threads actually carry.
The candidates were already in the dialog: currentTags, used until now
only to render the checkbox list. The constructor now walks two
(field, vocabulary) pairs instead of two fields sharing one list, with
knownTags for Add and currentTags.keys() for Remove. On a multi-thread
selection that is the union, not the intersection, since removing a tag
two of three threads carry is a meaningful request.
The setWidget and per-token prefix machinery is untouched: these fields
hold a comma-separated list, and QLineEdit::setCompleter is the trap
this dialog already works around. Only the candidate list changed.
Completion stays a suggestion, never a whitelist, so a tag absent from
the candidates still applies.
Tests type keys rather than using setText, which does not drive a
completer at all. Verified load-bearing by mutation: reverting the
Remove vocabulary to knownTags fails the new test.

Sync had two controls that behaved differently. The QPushButton beside the
query bar cleared the log, opened the pane and disabled itself; the QAction
behind the toolbar, menu and shortcut called start() and did nothing else,
discarding its return value so a rejected start was silent. Worse, item 29's
"disable Sync during a background sync" set the button only, so the toolbar
entry stayed clickable through a cron sync and could only produce the
script's EX_TEMPFAIL skip.
startSync() is now the single handler behind every route in, and the enabled
state lives on the QAction, which reaches the toolbar, the menu and the
shortcut at once. It also reports when no sync command is configured rather
than doing nothing.
The QPushButton is gone. It read as a Search button given it sat beside a
text field, which is the user's own observation and the reason the toolbar
one survives instead. Its unavailable-command tooltip moved to the action,
since that is the only thing that says why the control is dead.
Removing it left the query field running flush to the window edge, so the
saved-query buttons move from their own row onto the query row. The bar is
now framed by the account dropdown on the left and the saved queries on the
right, the empty row is gone, and the thread list gains the space. The field
also gains setClearButtonEnabled, which is Qt's own themed clear icon rather
than a hand-rolled button. A "Search" button was considered and rejected:
Return already runs the query.
No overflow handling for [queries], which is unbounded. Three entries fit;
item 23 already specifies buttons-plus-menu and is where that belongs.
CLAUDE.md's architecture diagram named four widget classes that have never
existed, QueryBar, SavedQueryBar, HeaderWidget and AttachmentBar. The query
row and the message header are built inline. Corrected, and the components
that do exist but were missing from it added.
Tests: the new action test was verified red first and load-bearing by
mutation. The old button test is deleted rather than repointed, being an
exact duplicate of it, and the unobservable-lock test now drives the action.
The clear button and the row layout were confirmed by hand; no test clicks
the icon, which is a mouse path.
Backlog: 45 done and reclassified as a defect rather than a cosmetic
redundancy, 47 added for the bar.

Both are the same class of defect: a test that reads real machine state and
so passes or fails on circumstance rather than on the code under test.
Item 38. Every MainWindow a test builds constructed its SyncMonitor on the
live /proc/locks, so a window observed the machine's actual sync state and
the sync-button assertion failed whenever the user's cron sync happened to
be running. Cron fires every ten minutes and a run lasts ~35s, which is
roughly 6% of runs, and it read as flakiness. SyncMonitor already took an
injectable locks path for exactly this; MainWindow did not expose it. It
does now, as a test seam rather than a config key: /proc/locks is not
something a user would set, and a wrong value silently disables background
sync detection instead of failing loudly.
The monitor is still constructed and started, per the item's own constraint.
Only the table it reads is redirected, to an empty file in the test's own
temporary directory.
Item 46. uiStateSurvivesARestart asserted a 940px width, and the offscreen
platform reports an 800x800 screen. restoreGeometry() clamps to the
available area, so the width came back as 798 while the 620 height, which
fits, restored untouched. That asymmetry was the tell that persistence was
fine and the test was wrong. The size is now 640x560 and carries no meaning
beyond differing from the default.
Verified by reproducing the original conditions rather than by waiting for
them: the suite run under flock -n /tmp/mbsync.lock fails item 38's
assertion with the seam bypassed and passes with it in place, and item 46
now passes under offscreen where it failed. One dud mutation is recorded in
the backlog, writing an unparseable line into the injected lock table does
not fail the test, because lockHeldIn() correctly finds no lock in it.
Suite: 15/15 offscreen with the lock held, and green on Wayland except the
pre-existing querycompleter screenshot flake, which fails to grab under
Wayland and passes offscreen.

A tag edit sent while another process holds notmuch's write lock does not
fail: the read-write open blocks and then succeeds. Measured against
Slackware's notmuch, 9.158s against a 12s hold, status SUCCESS. Since the
worker is a single thread, that blocked open holds up every read queued
behind it, so the message pane freezes on whichever thread was selected
first and replays the queue when the lock releases.
The window now defers instead. While SyncMonitor reports a sync running, a
tag change is held rather than sent, and flushed when the sync ends. The
optimistic update stands in the meantime, so the row keeps its tag and the
edit still counts toward the unsynced indicator, which is what the quit
prompt reads.
The original diagnosis was that the open fails and the edit is discarded,
and a retry was built on it. That was wrong: the error branch in
notmuchworker.cpp is unreachable through lock contention. The premise was
taken from a plausible-looking error path without provoking the condition,
and measurement disproved it. The backlog entry records this rather than
quietly correcting it.
Verified by hand against a real blocking open, which the tests cannot reach:
they drive the deferral through the meta-object and never take a lock. Both
locks held for 100s with a tag edit made during the hold. Row kept the tag,
status did not expire, indicator rose, window stayed responsive, held edit
sent itself on release.
The 2s SyncMonitor polling window is knowingly left open: a sync starting
between polls is invisible for up to 2s and an edit there still blocks.
SyncMonitor::lockHeldIn() would close it at the cost of one file read per
tag action, and is recorded as the option to revisit.
Also fixes revertPendingTagChange() clearing the entire undo stack after any
rejected write, found while working on this.
Backlog: item 37 done, and item 46 added for a test that fails only under
the offscreen platform, where an 800x800 screen clamps a restored 940px
window. Pre-existing and unrelated; the suite is green otherwise.

Item 28, reported by the user: open a thread, let the automatic
mark-read remove `unread`, then press Ctrl+U to put it back. The
indicator read "2 unsynced change(s)" with the mail store exactly where
it started.
The counter incremented per confirmed write and never decremented, so
any add-then-remove of the same tag inflated it. Mark-read is simply the
path that fires without being asked, which is why it surfaced there.
The user's call was net state: an edit and its inverse are zero
outstanding changes, because what the indicator answers is whether
quitting now would strand work. A QHash keyed "<messageId>\n<tag>"
replaces the int, and a pair that reverts is erased rather than stored
with the new direction, so the map cannot grow without bound across a
long session of tagging and untagging.
Keyed per (message, tag) rather than per message: removing `unread` and
adding `flagged` on one message are independent changes and must not
cancel each other. A change carrying no message ids cannot be netted
against anything and is counted separately, since dropping it would
understate the indicator, which is the direction that costs work.
Both properties item 18 established still hold: a successful sync clears
everything, a failed one clears nothing.

Items 16 and 33.
Delete now removes the `deleted` tag when every selected thread already
carries it, so pressing it twice puts a thread back. One direction for
the whole selection, never per row: toggling each independently would
leave a single keystroke with the selection in two states, which is
worse than either outcome.
Status messages are classified rather than blanket-timed, which is the
substance of item 33. Events expire after six seconds and fall back to
the last query's thread count: "Sync complete", "Nothing to undo", the
skip notice, the per-action "Archive: 3 threads". State does not expire:
"Searching...", "Syncing...", the selection count, and "Sync failed
(exit N)", because an error must not vanish before it is read.
A test caught a mistake in that routing. Making the per-action message
transient armed the timer during select-all, since tagSelected() runs on
a selection onSelectionChanged() had just described, and the count would
then be replaced while it was still true. Writing the count now cancels
any transient still counting down.
QStatusBar::showMessage() would give the same behaviour but the label is
added with addWidget() beside permanent widgets, so adopting it means
reworking that arrangement. One timer beside the label is the smaller
change.
Both fixes verified by reverting them and watching the tests fail.

Item 31. The user could not tell which button Enter would press on the
unsynced-changes dialog.
The code was already correct: setDefaultButton() is called, and Qt agrees,
isDefault() and hasFocus() are both true on "Sync and quit". The active
style, qt6ct-style, simply draws no visible default-button decoration. The
GIMP dialog offered for comparison is GTK drawing its own focus ring, a
different toolkit.
Naming the default in the text rather than restyling the button:
overriding the appearance means fighting the user's theme, which is worse
than one word. The safe option was already the default, so no behaviour
changed.

Items 29 and 32.
29 was a constraint item 27 specified and that shipped unbuilt: while a
cron sync held the lock the Sync button stayed clickable, and pressing it
could only produce the EX_TEMPFAIL skip. The progress bar and the button
are now written by one updateSyncControls() taking both sync sources,
which the item asked for by name: two independent assignments, one per
path, means whichever finishes second wins, so a background sync ending
would re-enable the button in the middle of a local run.
Unknown re-enables the button, deliberately. It means /proc/locks could
not be read and nothing was observed, so leaving the button disabled
would strand it permanently wherever the lock cannot be seen.
32 adds a clear_pane action on Esc. It clears m_currentThreadId with the
pane, not merely alongside it, or a threadLoaded still in flight would
paint the thread straight back; and it cancels any pending mark-read,
since a thread blanked from view must not be marked read two seconds
later. The selection, the query and the undo stack are untouched.
The one real risk in 32 was Escape being stolen from the query
completer, the way Return was once lost to a window shortcut. Probed
rather than reasoned about: a popup consumes the key before a
window-level shortcut sees it, so the completer still dismisses.
Every test here was verified by reverting the code it covers.

Reported from hand testing: a manual sync ended with "Sync finished
elsewhere" stamped over its own result.
Ownership of a lock period was being decided when the lock was RELEASED,
by asking MailSync::isRunning(). That question cannot be answered then:
the process exits, so isRunning() goes false, and only afterwards does
the next poll observe the lock gone. The guard therefore suppressed the
message while the sync ran and let it through at the end, up to two
seconds after onSyncFinished() had already said what happened.
Ownership is now latched when the lock APPEARS, which is the moment
isRunning() can still answer, and the matching release is swallowed.
onSyncFinished() hands the latch back when it sees exit 75, because a
skip means the lock was never ours: if a manual run and the cron run
start inside one poll interval, the lock would otherwise be latched as
local and that other run's completion swallowed with it.
Also renames the messages to "Background sync running/completed" per the
user: "finished elsewhere" reads as though the application does not know
what is syncing the Maildir, when in fact it is the same script.
The tests added here cover the external path and the Unknown state. They
do NOT reproduce the reported bug, and were checked against a reverted
fix to confirm that: staging it needs isRunning() true at the Running
transition and false at the Idle one, which cannot be arranged in
test_mainwindow without a configured sync command and a live child
process. That was tried and abandoned, it left a process running for the
length of the suite and popped a dialog. The ordering and the fix were
instead verified against a standalone model of both code paths.

The user's cron runs mailsync.sh every ten minutes, so mail arrives and
tags change while the window sits idle, and nothing here noticed. The
script already holds an flock for the whole run, so that lock is the
signal: no status file is needed, and a kernel lock cannot go stale
because it dies with the process holding it.
The observation method is the part that matters, and two of the three
plausible ones are wrong. Both were probed on Linux 6.18 before any of
this was written:
- flock -n acquires in order to test, so polling every two seconds
would open a window every two seconds in which a starting
mailsync.sh is refused the lock and exits 75. It would cause the
very skips the script reports.
- fcntl(F_OFD_GETLK) never acquires and looks ideal, but reports
UNLOCKED against a lock held by flock(2): separate lock namespaces
in the kernel, which cannot see each other. A silent false negative.
- /proc/locks is a pure read. It observes flock(2) correctly, and
since it takes no lock at all it can never contend with the Xapian
write lock notmuch new holds during the same run. Confirmed: 200
reads left the lock table unchanged and this process holding
nothing.
SyncMonitor keeps the parsing separate from the polling so the parsing
is testable, and it reports Unknown rather than Idle where /proc/locks
cannot be read: "no sync is running" is the claim that would let the
window quit, so it must never be guessed. Verified against a real flock
end to end, not only against synthetic content.
It reports rather than refreshes. runCurrentQuery() clears the undo
stack, the selection and the message pane, which is right for a query
the user typed and hostile for one a cron timer fired: it would discard
undo history and close the thread being read up to six times an hour,
with no action from the user.

Multi-select already worked by Ctrl+click and Shift+click, but nothing in
the UI said so and every tag action was keyboard-only, so the Ctrl+T tag
dialog could not be reached with a mouse at all.
Adds a select_all action on Ctrl+A, registered like every other action so
it reaches the Edit menu, the shortcut reference and [keys]; a right-click
menu on the thread list built from the same QActions rather than parallel
copies; a selection count in the status bar, which is the part that
actually teaches the feature by acknowledging a selection while it is
being built; and a note in the shortcut dialog for the mouse gestures,
which are view behaviour and cannot appear in the generated table.
A selection gesture must not open mail or mutate it. Selecting several
rows now blanks the message pane and cancels any pending mark-read,
rather than rendering each row swept through and queueing it to be marked
read.
Two Qt behaviours shaped this, both established by probe rather than from
memory:
- selectAll() emits no currentRowChanged at all and leaves the current
index invalid.
- currentRowChanged is emitted BEFORE the selection model is updated.
The second one caused two distinct faults. Collapsing a multi-row
selection back to one row reported the old count, so the guard swallowed
the load and the pane stayed blank; that case is handled in
onSelectionChanged, which sees the true count. And a Ctrl+click taking
the selection from one row to two also reported one, so the thread was
loaded, blanked, and then painted back when the queued reply returned
from the worker. By the third row the id was already cleared and the
reply was discarded, which is why the fault presented as an off-by-one in
the threshold rather than as a race.
Tests cover the synchronous half. The late-reply guard has no test:
MainWindow in tests has no worker, so threadLoaded never fires and the
repaint cannot be reproduced in process. Verified by hand instead.

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.

Four changes to the sync UI, three of them from using it.
The log pane could not be dismissed. It is hidden at construction and
shown on failure, and nothing ever hid it again, so a single failed sync
left it on screen until the application restarted. It now sits in a
container with its own Close button, and is 200px rather than 120,
because mbsync's output is wide and repetitive and the shorter pane
showed too little of it to read. It still appears only on failure, which
the user confirmed is what they want.
A sync gives no feedback while it runs. The status bar now carries an
indeterminate progress bar for the duration, and the Sync button is
disabled rather than left looking live. The bar is indeterminate on
purpose: mbsync reports no percentage and the script's output is
unstructured, so a bar filling left to right would be inventing a
fraction nobody knows. The log is also cleared at the start of each run,
since leaving the previous run's lines in place makes a stale failure
look like the current one.
The lock skip was reported as a failure. mailsync.sh exits when another
run holds the lock, and that was exit 1, which qtmaildir reads as "sync
failed": it showed the log pane and, on the exit path, told the user
their changes were still unsynced. With a cron timer every ten minutes,
a click landing inside a run is routine and none of that is true. The
script now exits 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL) and the window reports it as its own
case, saying a sync is already running. On the exit path it stays open
and says plainly that the other run is most likely carrying the changes
over but that this window cannot see it finish, rather than guessing
either way.
That last hedge is what item 27 records: the application cannot see a
sync it did not start. The user chose continuous polling of the lock file
over the narrower "only while quitting" version, and the entry notes that
the lock is already the signal, so no status file is needed, and that a
kernel lock cannot go stale where a written file can.
Verified against stub binaries: a second run while the lock is held exits
75 and says SKIPPED, while the run holding it completes at 0.

Reported by the user: in the Edit tags fields, the first tag suggested
existing tags and the second did not. Typing a comma, a space and a
letter offered nothing.
QLineEdit::setCompleter hands completion to the line edit, which
overwrites the completer's prefix with the widget's ENTIRE text on every
keystroke. These fields hold a comma-separated list, so once one reads
"unread, fl" that whole string is matched against the tag names, nothing
matches, and completion silently stops after the first tag. Confirmed
with a probe: the prefix really is "unread, fl" and the completion count
really is zero.
Attach with setWidget instead, which keeps the popup anchored without
ceding control of the prefix, and drive it from the token under the
cursor on every edit. Setting the prefix from a textEdited handler while
leaving setCompleter in place does NOT work, which was the first attempt:
the line edit sets it again afterwards.
Accepting a candidate needed the same treatment, and is the other half of
the fix. QCompleter's own insertion replaces the whole field, so taking
"flagged" from the popup would have discarded every tag already typed.
replaceCurrentToken() overwrites only the token under the cursor and
keeps the separator's spacing, so the result is "unread, flagged" rather
than "unread,flagged".
This is the same defect QueryCompleter hit in c98b179. Having now cost
two debugging rounds, it is written into CLAUDE.md as a Qt trap rather
than a property of either class, together with the reason a test using
setText() passes against it: setText does not drive a completer at all,
so the keys have to be typed.
Both new tests were confirmed to fail against setCompleter before the fix
was kept.

Five hardcoded tags were the only ones reachable from the UI: archive,
delete, spam, flag and toggle_unread. For an application whose purpose is
organising mail by tag, applying any other one meant leaving for a
terminal. Item 26 of the usability backlog, raised by the user asking how
to add a tag and finding they could not.
One dialog rather than separate add and remove actions, at the user's
choice: filing something under a new tag while dropping inbox is one
thought, not two. Type tags to add or remove, comma separated, or clear a
checkbox to drop a tag already on the selection without retyping its
name.
Both fields complete against the tag list MainWindow already holds for
the query completer. Completion is a guard against typing shoppping
beside shopping, never a whitelist: inventing a tag is the entire point,
so any valid name goes through whether or not it exists yet.
Tri-state checkboxes carry the multi-thread case, and are where the risk
is. A tag on some selected threads shows partially checked, and leaving
it alone changes nothing; the opposite reading would silently tag threads
the user never looked at. A tag already on every thread and left checked
is likewise not a change and is not sent as one.
Tag names are validated before anything is applied, through a free
function so the rules are testable on their own. Empty, a leading dash
(notmuch's CLI reads it as removal, making such a tag a trap), whitespace
and control characters are refused by name and reason. Nothing is applied
until the whole set passes, since the user cannot tell which half of a
partial change landed.
TagDialog is pure UI: handed the vocabulary and the current state,
returning two lists, contacting no worker. That is what lets its fifteen
tests run without a notmuch database. Integration is a single call to the
existing tagSelected(), so undo, the optimistic model update, the
combined multi-row query and the completer refresh for a brand-new tag
all come for free.
One test assumption was wrong and the code was right: a case asserted
that QStringLiteral("null\0byte") truncates at the null and reads as
empty. It does not, so the null is caught as a control character. The
test was corrected rather than the validator.

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.

MimeParser has filled To and Cc all along and HtmlBuilder simply never
interpolated them, so both were parsed on every message and then
discarded. The header strip showed the subject and a message count and
nothing else, which is item 2 of the usability backlog.
The header now adapts to what it can say honestly. A thread holding one
message shows From, To and Cc under the subject, where every field is
unambiguous. A thread holding several keeps showing the subject and the
count alone: the recipient differs message to message, and once the user
has replied there is no single address the thread is addressed to, so
naming one would be a guess presented as a fact. Per-message detail is
what the dialog is for.
That dialog lists Subject, From, To, Cc, Date and Message-Id for every
message, numbered when there is more than one, in a read-only plain-text
widget. Plain text is the security decision, not a stylistic one: these
values come from strangers and the dialog exists to show them verbatim,
so the format that cannot interpret markup is the right one. The header
label is RichText and every value interpolated into it is escaped, since
an unescaped From injects into the application's own chrome rather than
into the sandboxed page.
Reached by a Details... button beside the subject and by Ctrl+Shift+D.
Both, because a shortcut alone restates the complaint this backlog opened
with. The binding is shifted because Ctrl+D is delete, and the
destructive action keeps the key it already had rather than being moved
to make room.
An empty Cc omits its row instead of printing a label with nothing after
it. Both header shapes were rendered to PNG and inspected, not only
asserted.
The new button also exposed a latent flaw in an older test:
attachmentButtonLabels() identified attachment buttons by excluding the
one other button's label, so it counted the details button as an
attachment as soon as one existed. It now finds the bar by object name
and reads only its children.

The delegate split each row evenly between the value and its
description. That reads as fair but spends the width on the wrong
column: the values are short, the longest prefix being "attachment:",
while the descriptions are ordinary prose. Measured against the built-in
vocabulary, ten of fifteen descriptions elided at a 400px popup and the
longest, "directory below the Maildir root", needed a ~650px popup to
appear in full, all while the value's half of the row sat mostly empty.
The descriptions are the whole reason the popup teaches the query
language, so a half they cannot use is a half wasted.
Measure the value and lend the description the remainder, capped at 65%
of the row. Every built-in description now fits at ~500px instead of
~700px. The cap is what keeps a genuinely long value legible, and the
value's own reservation is capped in turn so that
"application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text" elides itself rather than
claiming the row and silencing the column that explains what it is.
The test renders the real popup and reads the pixels back, since the
delegate is private to the .cpp and legibility is a painting question.
It asserts the painted width against the width the text needs unelided,
not merely that something was drawn: a blank-or-not check passes against
the very rule this replaces. 550px is chosen deliberately, being a width
where the new rule paints the longest description in full and an even
split cannot; against the old code it fails with "painted 261px of the
285px it needs".

Pressing Return in the query bar moved focus to the thread list and left
the query unrun, so a query typed at the keyboard could not be executed
at all.
Return is bound to open_thread as a Qt::WindowShortcut, and a shortcut is
dispatched before the focused widget ever sees the key. Qt withholds a
plain-LETTER shortcut from an editable widget, which is why every other
binding in the map was safe here, but Return is not a letter and gets no
such protection: the action fired from inside the bar, its handler called
setFocus() on the thread list, and QLineEdit::returnPressed was never
emitted.
Accept the ShortcutOverride for Return and Enter on the query bar, which
tells Qt the focused widget wants the key as ordinary input and stops the
shortcut being dispatched. Narrow by design, one widget and one key, so
open_thread keeps working everywhere else in the window.
Three earlier hypotheses were tested and disproven before this one, and
two synthetic probes wrongly reported the binding as harmless: real input
sends ShortcutOverride first and only dispatches the shortcut if nothing
claims it, while QTest::keyClick skips that round trip entirely. The new
test drives the override exchange rather than the keystroke and fails
against the old code. The comment claiming no filter was needed said the
letter rule covered this case; it did not, and it now says so.

Pressing Tab or an arrow key with the completion popup open crashed the
application outright.
QCoreApplication::sendEvent re-runs APPLICATION-level event filters. The
navigation branch forwarded the key to the popup from inside a filter
installed on qApp, so the very same event came back to the filter that
had just sent it. The popup was still visible, the popupVisible() guard
still passed, and it forwarded again: unbounded recursion ending in a
stack overflow rather than in any diagnosable error. Reproduced at 9176
recursive QueryCompleter::eventFilter frames, with a standalone Qt probe
confirming the re-entry independently.
Guard the filter with m_forwarding, checked before the switch so it
covers every branch rather than the navigation keys alone. A key the
filter is itself redelivering now falls through to the popup instead of
being claimed a second time.
The existing tests missed this because they exercised the accept path
without ever forwarding an event. arrowNavigationDoesNotRecurse drives
Down through the grabbing popup and asserts the selection actually
moved, so it fails on a fix that merely swallows the key; against the
old code it takes the process down with it.

Showing the popup takes focus away from the query bar and the popup
window grabs the keyboard, so keys pressed while it is up are delivered
to the popup. An event filter installed on the line edit therefore never
ran at the one moment it had to, leaving Tab to move focus to the next
widget and Return to reach the thread list and open a message.
Install the key filter on the application instead, which sees events
before any widget receives them. It returns immediately unless our own
popup is visible, so it cannot affect keyboard handling elsewhere. The
FocusIn filter stays on the line edit, where it is correctly scoped: it
only fires with the popup down.
Accepting a completion now also reopens the popup when the caret lands
somewhere more can be offered, so taking "tag:" goes straight on to the
tag list instead of needing a second complete_query. The chain stops on
a stem that is already a complete candidate, which is what every accept
produces. The mouse path chains identically.
The previous tests passed against the broken code because they posted
events straight to the line edit, bypassing the delivery path a real
keypress takes. The new tests route keys through the active popup and
run against a real X display; offscreen does not grab the keyboard and
cannot reproduce this class of bug.

QLineEdit::setCompleter hands completion to the line edit, which then
resets the completer's completionPrefix to the widget's entire text on
every keystroke. The prefix has to be the stem, so once the query grew
past its first token the whole-line prefix matched no candidate, the
popup stopped appearing, and the two reported symptoms followed: nothing
was there for Tab to accept, and Tab fell through to focus navigation.
Attach the completer with setWidget instead, which keeps the popup
anchored without ceding control of the prefix. complete() dereferences
widget() unconditionally, so leaving it unset segfaults rather than
degrading. Opening the popup then becomes ours to do on every edit.
Extend the existing event filter to route the keys the popup needs while
it is visible, and install it unconditionally now that it does more than
the completion_on_focus case. Enter accepts a completion only while the
popup is up, so returnPressed still runs the query when it is closed.
The existing tests called acceptCompletion() directly and so never
touched the widget, which is why neither bug was caught. Add four tests
that drive the real widget path plus one covering both settings of
completion_on_focus; the first two fail against the old code.

Adds the complete_query action, whose registration the assertion in
registerActions() has been demanding since keymap gained the name: a
known action nothing implements would have been a silently dead binding.
Also lands the QueryCompleter half of the manual trigger, which the
keymap commit left behind: triggerCompletion() and the focus-in filter
gated on completion_on_focus.
Tags refresh at startup, after a sync, and after a mutation introduces a
tag not already known, since that is the tag most likely to be typed
again. onAllTagsReady deliberately drops the generation the signal
carries: a tag list is not an ordered query result, so a later one is
always at least as good as an earlier one and discarding on staleness
could only throw away a good list.

The free-form date hint is a footer label rather than a model row: a row
would be filtered away by the first non-matching keystroke and could be
selected and inserted, producing a query that errors.
QCompleter::setPopup takes a QAbstractItemView, so the label cannot be laid
out beside the view in a container widget. The footer sits in space reserved
with setViewportMargins inside the list view instead.
setItemDelegate must run after setPopup, not before: setPopup installs a
plain QStyledItemDelegate of its own and discards whatever was already set,
which silently drops the description column.
Accepting replaces exactly the span the tokenizer identified rather than
QCompleter's own completion prefix, which is a different span once a prefix
or a range bound is involved. Four tests drive that path directly instead of
through synthetic key events, since whether a key needs Shift is a
keyboard-layout property and could not decide the question.

tag: and is: share the tag list, since notmuch aliases them. path: offers
each account maildir in both bare and recursive forms, the latter being
what Account::scopedQuery builds and not something a user would guess.

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.

KeyMap::defaultBindings() is the single source of truth for shortcuts:
the menus, the shortcut reference dialog and loadDefaults() all read it,
so registering here makes the binding appear in the reference and stay
rebindable from [keys] without any of them disagreeing.
Ctrl+Space is a modifier plus a named key, so it sidesteps the bare
capital trap in normalizeSequence() and needs no Shift on any layout.
Verified it parses to a single non-empty combination that round-trips to
"Ctrl+Space", and it collides with no existing default.
Note test_mainwindow now fails its everyKnownActionIsRegistered()
assertion: MainWindow does not yet implement complete_query. That wiring
is a separate task, and the assertion firing is the intended signal.

Keywords are syntax and stay untranslated; the descriptions beside them are
prose and go through tr().
The tables are free functions with no QObject to inherit tr() from, so the
file declares a VocabularyStrings context with Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS rather
than borrowing QObject::tr, which would file every string under the QObject
context.

Query bar completion cannot offer tag names without a way to enumerate
them, and libnotmuch had no call wired up for it. Follows the existing
generation-counter pattern; the result crosses the thread boundary as a
QStringList.
