The second half of the pending-button sweep: where the pressed control does
not merely disable but LEAVES the page — an invite row gone after Approve,
the inbox's Clear all gone with the last notification, a section gone once
its last row is handled — the browser dropped the focus to <body> and the
next Tab started over at the top.
useFocusKeeper, on the page scroller: when the element holding the focus is
removed and the focus fell to <body>, the first focusable thing in its slot
takes it (what followed, else what preceded, else the nearest ancestor still
on the page). Portaled layers (menus, dialogs) sit outside the scroller and
return focus themselves; listNav's keyboard lists are left alone — their `j`
already goes on from the slot, and a row scrolled out of a virtualized list
must not drag the focus after it.
- "A page with a sticky ColumnHead must declare fadeTop: false" lived in
prose: a registry flag on three pages plus an App special case for the
Channels card layout, and the next table page would have re-acquired the
fade-on-the-header defect with every lane green. ColumnHead now registers
itself with the enclosing PageScroller (ui/stickyTop) while mounted; the
registry flag, the App branch and the prop plumbing are gone. Measured on
localdev: the top mask is 0px under Channels' and Audit's headers, 20px on
Home and the Feed.
- ui/DataTable mounted its table AND its card list at every width, one
hidden by CSS: double DOM and render cost, duplicate ids, two keyboard
copies of every row. It now mounts the one the `md` media query calls for
(lib/useMediaQuery); the keyboard test asserts one layout at each width.
- The Plex module's content width went px → rem with the rest of the page.
The app HAS a platform layer -- AnchoredPopover (22 importers, with
arrows/typeahead/Escape/anchor-flip), QueryState (21), Modal (17),
PageShell, DataTable, Tabs, Tooltip and ~26 more -- but it sat flat among
~160 feature components with nothing marking it as one. Several of those
files describe themselves as 'the one place' or 'canonical' and were
still bypassed by hand-rolled markup, because a layer nobody can see is a
layer nobody uses; three separate inventory passes of this codebase
misread it the same way.
Moves the 33 domain-free modules into components/ui/, rewrites the
imports in 89 files, and makes the boundary a lint rule rather than a
convention: inside ui/ a one-level-up import (a feature component) and
any lib/api slice are errors. The rule was verified to fire on both and
to leave generic lib/ helpers alone. README.md states which side of the
line a component belongs on and why.
No behaviour change: 3x tsc, eslint, knip, prettier and 687 vitest tests
all green; no backend file touched.
