passes `onNavigate` to the viewer, which turns on the platform's new carousel:
arrows, a thumbnail strip and left/right/escape.
`?view=` is an absolute path in this panel, so the step is written straight back —
the name-relative-to-folder conversion the Files screen does is that screen's own
convention rather than a rule the viewer imposes.

on /files the viewer is NOT part of the file browser. `useFileViewerPanels` lives on
the SCREEN and swaps the whole workspace layout when `?view=` appears, opening a
viewer panel beside the browser. a plugin renders its own defaultLayout and has no
such hook — so double-clicking a file in this panel set `?view=` and nothing on earth
read it.
which means it never worked here. it LOOKED like it did for one deploy, because
`urlPath` was navigating to /files, where that screen did the work — so the bug I
introduced and then removed is the only reason anybody saw a preview.
the panel reads `?view=` itself now and renders FileViewerView, which the platform
exports for exactly this. OVER the browser rather than beside it: this panel is one
column of a two-column screen, and splitting it again would give a preview the width
of a phone.
closing clears `view` and `viewRoot` and leaves `media` alone, so you land back in
the folder you were in rather than at the top.

`urlPath` sent the whole app to /files the moment anybody opened a folder — it owns
the pathname, which is right for the Files screen and wrong for a panel. it uses the
platform's new `pathParam` instead, which names a search param and leaves the route
alone.
`?media=` rather than `?path=`: this screen already carries `?section=` and may one
day carry a second browser. a param named after what it addresses cannot collide
with one named after a concept.

THE TOP WAS THREE ROWS OF FURNITURE before any content: the workspace's chrome
header saying "Detail", the panel's own strip saying "Media — Photos and video the
site is built from", and then the browser's toolbar.
a panel meta may supply its own `header`, which is the mechanism for exactly this and
which gitea, invoices and desktop already use. so the section's name goes where a
panel's name goes, and the strip inside is gone. "Detail" was never information —
the panel is the detail panel, and the useful word is which section is open.
the hint went with it. "Photos and video the site is built from" earns its place in
the NAV, where somebody is choosing between ten sections. repeated above the one they
chose, it is a caption for a decision already made.
AND THE FOLDER IS IN THE QUERY STRING. `urlPath` puts it in `?path=`, so a reload
lands where you were and a link can be sent to somebody — which for a media folder
somebody else uploads into is the point. it is opt-in in the platform because a
screen with two browsers would have them fighting over one parameter; this screen has
one.
`panelId` stays alongside it: the URL covers a reload or a shared link, and panelId
covers a panel re-opened later, which the URL cannot.

the previous commit claimed to remove the explanatory line and did not. prettier had
reflowed that JSX onto one line, my multi-line match missed, and the commit carried
only the version bump — which I then reported as done. the banner was still on fofos
and the owner saw it.
same shape as the git-add failure earlier today: a command that did not do what I
asked, and no check afterwards. verified by grep this time before committing —
0 occurrences.
and the breadcrumb now reads Media rather than originals, through `rootLabel` on the
platform's FileBrowserApp. the folder's name on disk is how this plugin lays out a
root; the person looking at it never chose that word.

a new section above Administration. it embeds THE PLATFORM'S OWN file browser rather
than drawing a file list — upload, delete, rename, move, thumbnails, the context
menu and every task hanging off it already exist and are maintained in one place. a
plugin's own would be a second to keep in step, arriving without any of that.
`basePath` IS A JAIL, not a starting folder: `useFileBrowserApp` resets currentPath
whenever it leaves, so pointing it at `<root>/media/originals` means the breadcrumb
stops there and `derived/` is not reachable by navigating. that is what was asked
for — people work in originals, derived is made for them.
IT IS A GUARDRAIL AND NOT A PERMISSION BOUNDARY, and the panel says so in its own
docstring because the difference will matter to whoever reads this next. the
file-browser API is unchanged and still addresses the whole home: anyone with file
access reaches derived/ through the Files screen. this prevents an accident, not a
determined person. confining it properly means scoping that API per user, which is a
platform change and a much larger one.
the panel also says, once, that derived/ exists and is made from these — otherwise
somebody who knows about it would think it had been lost.
`rootRelative` is new on the settings API because only the SERVER knows what home
is. the file browser addresses everything relative to a root, and a browser deriving
that prefix from the absolute path would be guessing. null when the root sits
outside home — a legitimate setting the browser cannot address, which the panel
explains rather than rendering an empty folder.
NOTHING HERE IS FOFOS-SPECIFIC, which matters now that this plugin is the template
for other site admins: the root is a setting, media/originals is the layout this
plugin creates, and both are read from the API. another site's plugin changes the
label.
