+        It was a gear in the header, which is where a settings control is easy to WRITE and not where
+        anybody looks for one: the owner asked for this after failing to find it. The bottom of a
+        sidebar is the conventional home for the thing you configure once, and being a labelled row
+        rather than an icon means it says what it is.
+
+        The form opens ABOVE the button rather than below it, so the control does not move when you use
+        it. A disclosure that walks away from the pointer as it expands is the small kind of wrong that
+        makes something feel unfinished.
