ekklesiaandClaude Opus 5 13aac85b87 docs: record Parent Call, the DVD migration and what is left to test
Three things in this window that a container cannot answer, and they are
now the top of the next-steps list: a real key pressed into Parent Call,
a television switched on after the computer, and a disc that plays.

Also brings the comments in the shared libraries up to date. The only
mention of sway left in the tree is the upgrade step that removes the
sway-era login shell from a room being upgraded.

Screenshots from the classroom v2 experiment

All 1920×1080, captured with grim from a real running session in the container lab. See ../classroom-v2-experiment.md.

The desktop

v2-idle-desktop the idle desktop: the wallpaper, one bar, nothing else
v2-from-package the same desktop, produced by installing the .deb on a clean machine
v2-dark-bar, v2-light-bar the bar in both themes
v2-theme-compare the two, one above the other
v2-testpage a maximised browser, edge to edge above the bar
v2-wonderink Wonder Ink as an application, in its own profile

Application state

state-1-closed both launchers closed: no indicator
state-3-behind one active (teal), one running behind it (grey)
state-4-minimized minimised — measured identical to behind, which is why minimise was removed as a route
state-5-restored back
v2-both-apps both applications, one button each, from the packaged install
labelled-tasks the labelled task manager, evaluated and rejected: it shows changing page titles rather than application names

Parent Call

pc-icon-vs-notifications the Parent Call mark beside Plasma's notification bell — the comparison that decided it
pc-mark the mark at 32, 48 and 64px, beside the two marks it replaced
pc-panel the whole bar: Parent Call left, applications centre, status right
pc-ready the card, ready, in approval mode
pc-waiting waiting for a volunteer to approve
pc-sent Sent to sanctuary — never "displayed"
pc-rejected not approved, offering Try again
pc-off the coordinator's mode is off
pc-nobroker the broker is unreachable
pc-typed a name in the field
icon-candidates-2 sixteen Breeze person icons at real panel size, none of which meant Parent Call

DVD

dvd-panel DVD in the row with the applications, out of the status area
dvd-cover the DVD launcher's tooltip on the packaged install
v2-dvd-overlay, v2-layershell the loading cover: a gtk-layer-shell overlay under KWin

Windows

v2-secondary-window a window a page opened, floating over an untouched browser, with its own close button
v2-print-dialog the system print dialog, over the page that raised it, offering only Elmer
v2-fullscreen fullscreen video: the whole display, panel covered
v2-layershell a gtk-layer-shell overlay under KWin — what the DVD loading cover is made of
v2-notification-crop a notification card, top right

Reliability and lockdown

recovery-after-8-kills the panel after eight consecutive SIGKILLs
recovery-after-kwin-kill the session after KWin was killed twice; the application window survived
recover-panel the bar rebuilt from the layout script after its configuration was deleted
lock-desktop-rmb right-clicking the wallpaper: no menu
lock-panel-rmb right-clicking the bar: no menu
lock-krunner KRunner asked for, and not there

Failures, kept

— keyboard injection never reached the nested session, so every interaction in this experiment was driven by the pointer. It is why Parent Call has never had a real key pressed into it, and why that is the first bench test.
m-closed, m-minimized the pair whose pixels were sampled to show that Plasma draws minimised and closed differently, but minimised and behind the same
