?mode=edit
docs/navigation-audit.md draws the line: anything ADDRESSABLE goes in the URL, and whether you are
editing a page or looking at it is exactly that. It survives a reload, it can be sent to somebody, and
a link to a page being edited is a different thing from a link to the page.
`mode`, not `view`. The parameter names the AXIS and the value names the state, so the pair reads
`mode=edit` and `mode=view` rather than the tautological `view=view`. Absent means View — the default
and the common case — so an ordinary link carries nothing and the parameter appears once somebody has
chosen.
The DEVICE deliberately stays in React state. It is a way of looking rather than a thing being looked
at, and nobody has wanted to send one. Worth keeping that distinction deliberate rather than letting
both drift into whichever place was convenient.
COLOURS AND TYPEFACES ARE TABS. They were two stacked cards taking as much height as both together, and
every pixel of it came off the preview — which is the thing being judged. One at a time costs a click
and gives the page back most of the panel.
The 55% cap on the controls is gone with them: one tab is short enough not to need capping, which is
the other thing this bought.
