The site serves nothing but derived files, so a block pointing at an original
the pipeline has not been through renders an empty box — on the page, in the
preview and in the editor. That is a normal thing to hit: drop a file in, choose
it in the same minute, and you are ahead of a conversion that only starts twenty
seconds after the folder goes quiet.
The action bar already said "Sync 3". What was missing was the link from THIS
blank block to that number, which is the half that costs an afternoon: an empty
box looks like a block saved wrong, so it gets looked for in the wrong place.
So the failed thumbnail is caught and named, using the state the bar already
polls: converting now, in a run that started before this file, outstanding for
the next one, or nothing running — with Sync now in place for the last case.
