Your Name 7e34d0c704 Make the media pool a list you can actually read
Every row is one line now — a thumbnail at the stage's own 16:10, the name,
and the one number you need before dragging it somewhere — at the timeline's
own row height. Two always-open folders cost eight headings before the first
row in a pane 210px wide; they are two tabs, and a search counts its hits in
the scope you are not looking at so nothing can hide behind the one you did
not pick.

Symbols draw their own first frame, through the resolver and rasteriser the
stage uses. A PLACED symbol is drawn where it is placed, with the rest of its
host isolated away: rooting at a symbol renders its DRAWING, and a rotoscoped
face is head-local in units of one image height, so the source-to-stage scale
that makes it pixels lives on the :face group of whatever places it. Rendered
rooted at itself a face is correct and under a pixel across. Thumbnails are
smoothly downscaled for the same kind of reason the preview is not: at a tenth
of the stage's size nearest neighbour samples one pixel in a hundred, and the
silhouette is the whole of what makes a thumbnail recognisable.

Names are editable, and that is two operations behind one pencil. A symbol's
name is a field of this document, so it is an undoable edit and blank gives it
back its id. Footage and sounds live beside projects rather than inside one,
so theirs is a server write shared by every project using the row — PATCH on
the existing Footage.label, and a new Sound.label kept separate from the
filename, which is a fact about the upload and not somebody's name for it.

No TIMELINES section beside a SYMBOLS one: every symbol here IS a timeline, so
that pair named one thing twice. What is true is that exactly one of them is
where the work happens, and clip/opens-on already answers which — it leads the
pane as PROJECT, drawn at a size you can read a pose off, with the library
under it. Still not :main being special; rename it or place it inside
something else and the pool follows.

"""The entity model, as tables.
It follows docs/architecture.md's model exactly, and the one thing worth reading
it for is which tier each table is in, because that is what decides whether a row
is a document, a cache entry or a source.
TIER 1, the document. Project, Clip, Leaf, Revision. Kilobytes, authored,
versioned, and the only tier anything will ever sync.
TIER 2, derived. Analysis, Block. Content-addressed by a hash over every input
that produced them — including the detector version — so a stale bake is
unreachable rather than wrong, and a collaborator's bake is fetchable by the
same key.
TIER 3, source. Footage, FootageFrame. Immutable, by hash.
Blob is under all three of them: bytes, named by the sha256 of themselves.
WHAT IS DELIBERATELY NOT HERE. `Clip` does not store fps, frames, width or height.
They are in the document — the `timing` and `stage` leaves — and a copy of them in
a column is a copy that comes to disagree with the scene it describes. The columns
`Clip` does have are the ones the SERVER needs to answer a question about a clip
without parsing its leaves: which footage, which analysis, which blocks.

THE PROXY IS THE ANALYSIS SOURCE AND THE FRAMES ARE NOT. `video` is one
browser-safe H.264 file, and it is what the page seeks through to detect
landmarks. `frame_set` is a JPEG per frame at tracing size: reference stills
for the tracing editor, never the thing measured. The two are not
interchangeable, and which one carries the pixels an analysis was computed
from is the difference between a 6MB take and a 1.1GB one.
So the frame JPEGs are deliberately NOT in `digest`. They are a rendering of
this footage for a human to trace over; re-rendering them at another size does
not make it different footage, and putting them in the identity would throw
away every analysis when the tracing size changed.
`feature_absence` is the manifest annotation step 8 introduced: known
occlusion intervals, one-based and inclusive, expanded into presence tracks by
the loader. An input format, not a control UI.
