TypeScript 7 removes `baseUrl` outright and refuses a non-relative entry
in `paths`, so the typecheck stops on tsconfig.json before it reaches a
line of our code. A leading `./` says the same thing without it: paths
resolve against the tsconfig's own directory, which is what `baseUrl:
"."` was there to arrange.
Nothing here waits for the upgrade. Relative paths without a baseUrl
have been the supported spelling since 4.4, so this typechecks the same
under 5.9.3 today as it will under 7. Vite resolves `@` from its own
alias in vite.config.ts and never read this.
With this in, 7.0.2 typechecks both workspaces clean -- the two
tsconfig errors were all that stood in the way, not the first two of
many.
GHSA-82fw-gwwq-j7x9 -- arbitrary file read through @vitest/mocker's
redirect mock -- has no fix in the 3.x line. The patched versions are
4.1.11 and 5.0.0-rc.2, so clearing it means the major. vite stays at
6.4.3: vitest 4 accepts ^6, and nothing outside devDependencies moves.
The bump surfaced a bug of ours rather than one of vitest's. vi.spyOn
now hands back the spy already installed on a method instead of wrapping
it in a fresh one, so a spy installed in beforeEach keeps its call count
across tests. compose-from-share expected two uploads and saw three: its
own two, plus the one from the test before it. The assertion was only
ever passing because each test happened to get a new spy.
Both suites now restore between tests, which is what the other five
spying suites already do. webpush had the same leak with no assertion
close enough to catch it.
Closes#310.
A dark campaign rendered with beige cards inside it. markKeptSurfaces
marks any element whose declared background is below the luminance
threshold, with no area cap, so a 600px layout card is marked exactly
like a button. The CSS then exempted the marked element and its whole
subtree via [data-ihm-keep] *, so a light table nested in that card was
never touched. In the reported specimen 14 of 21 light panels survived.
The rule now is that being inside a painted surface is not inherited past
a sheet. The walk tracks that state and emits a second mark,
data-ihm-in-keep, for elements sitting on paint with no background of
their own; the CSS exempts those explicitly instead of exempting every
descendant. A nested light sheet ends the protection, and paint resumes
below it, so a button inside such a sheet is still kept whole.
The alternatives in the report were not taken. Dropping the descendant
half of the selector outright puts back what #294 fixed: a nested label
on a coloured cell loses its colour. An area threshold is a magic number
that misfires on both a legitimate hero banner and a small dark panel
with a light chip in it.
The tests assert against the neutraliser selector lifted out of
EMAIL_BASE_CSS rather than against the marks. The first draft of them
checked which attributes were set and passed against the unfixed code,
which proved nothing: the bug was in the rule that reads the marks, not
in the marking. All four fail without this change.
Both happen in the background. The phone stays where it is.
This was twice described as impossible, here and in FEATURES.md: the
service worker was said to have no session, so anything touching mail had
to open the app. That is wrong, and checking it rather than repeating it
is the whole of this change. ihasmail's session is an httpOnly cookie
against its own origin and the only other thing the API asks for is a
fixed `x-requested-with` header, which is not a secret and is not held
anywhere. A same-origin fetch from the worker carries the cookie like any
other. Confirmed against the mock: logging in with curl and then issuing
`Email/set` with nothing but that cookie and the static headers marked a
message read and moved it to Archive, HTTP 200. Nothing the tab holds in
memory is involved, because the API asks for none of it.
Two actions, because `maxActions` is two on Android and anything past it
is dropped without a word. Archive and Mark as read are the two worth
having: they are what somebody does to a notification they have already
read the whole of. Reply is not among them -- it would have to open the
app, which is what tapping the notification does already.
The worker still cannot reach a catalogue. It is plain JavaScript copied
into the build, outside the bundle, with no i18n and no idea which
mailbox is the archive. So the app writes both down in the same cache it
already uses for handoffs, and rewrites them whenever the language, the
account or the folder list changes. Where there is no such note -- between
installing this worker and next opening ihasmail -- the notification
appears with no buttons at all, rather than English ones over a mailbox
guessed by name. That also fixes two strings the worker had always shown
in English regardless: "New mail" and "(no subject)".
A session can be gone by the time a button is pressed. That comes back as
a refusal and the notification says so, rather than vanishing as though
it had worked. It does not open the app to recover: being interrupted is
what the button existed to avoid.
The two claims that were wrong are corrected rather than quietly deleted,
including the one about push renewal -- which still needs a tab, but for
a different reason than the one given. The reason is when the worker
runs, not what it may do: it wakes only for a push, and the push stops
when the subscription lapses.
Two new strings, in all nine catalogues.
CI caught this on Node 22 while it passed here on 26. `new File([blob],
…)` only puts the blob's contents in the file where that implementation
recognises a Blob as a part; where it does not, it stringifies it, and
the file contains the thirteen characters "[object Blob]". No error
anywhere -- the name, the type and the attachment are all correct and
the contents are gone.
A browser would not have done this. It is worth not relying on that: an
ArrayBuffer is a part on every implementation, and the whole file is in
memory a moment later regardless, since it is about to be uploaded.
ihasmail could hand a file to the share sheet as of #306, and was still
not in it. Share a photo from the gallery, a link from the browser or a
document from a file manager and ihasmail was not among the places it
could go, which is the one piece of operating-system integration a mail
app is expected to have.
A share is a POST that navigates, and there is nothing on this side that
can answer one: the app is a client-side router with no endpoint at that
address, and the server behind it would need a route that understood the
composer. So the service worker intercepts it, takes the form body, puts
the files and text in its cache, and redirects to the app -- which finds
them on start and opens a draft holding them. The subject is the shared
title, the text and the link become the body, and files are attached and
begin uploading. Nothing is addressed: a share says what to send, never
who to.
The body is pushed in above the signature rather than passed to open(),
because open() only fits a signature when it is given no body at all --
the obvious version drops the signature from every message that started
as a share, and nothing about the draft looks wrong afterwards.
Collected on every start rather than when the launch URL says so. A share
to a signed-out ihasmail lands on the sign-in page, and there is no
account to attach to until it is done, so the payload has to outlive a
redirect and a login -- which the query string does not. What that costs
is a stash nobody came back for, so it carries a timestamp and expires
after ten minutes.
`accept` names wildcard families and explicit types and extensions both.
A mail client attaches anything, but wildcards are not in the
specification and operating systems differ over which form they match on,
so the explicit list is what holds if the families are ignored.
The cache name the worker and the app have to agree on now has one home
on the app side. It was written out twice, and a drift would not fail --
a push verification would simply never complete and a share would arrive
at an empty composer.
One case is deliberately left to fail loudly: an app still installed
whose worker has been cleared away POSTs to the server, which answers
405. A server route would trade a plain error for a silent nothing, and
the payload is gone in both -- it only ever existed in that request body.
Verified by test, not on a device: Android is the only place this exists
at all, and the extension driving Chrome is not connected here. The
handoff is pinned from the tab's side against a cache shaped exactly as
the worker leaves it, since the two files never see each other.
Three things an installed ihasmail did not do that a phone user expects,
and all three are about the app once it is off the browser tab.
The unread count was painted into the tab title and the favicon, neither
of which exists in `display: standalone` -- so putting ihasmail on a home
screen threw the count away entirely. It goes to the Badging API as well
now. Web Push marks the icon while the app is closed, and marks it with a
dot rather than a figure: the service worker has no session to ask how
many messages are unread, and a push carries the new mail rather than a
total, so counting the payload would badge "2" over an inbox holding
forty. The next tab to open writes the real count over it.
Sharing is new. Everything that left ihasmail left as a download, which
on a phone is close to a dead end -- the file lands in Downloads and
whoever meant to send it somewhere goes looking for it in a file manager.
The share sheet is now on the message menu, on each attachment row, and
in the file viewer, which is where an attachment is already open and
where both callers meet. A message shares as text rather than as the
.eml beside it: a share sheet is aimed at everything that is not a mail
client, and an .eml in a chat app is an attachment nobody can open.
Every control feature-detects, and sharing a file is a separate question
from sharing at all -- desktop Linux and Firefox have neither, and not
every browser with `share` takes files. Anything that fails, including
the transient activation running out while a large attachment is fetched,
falls through to the download the button sits beside, so the worst case
costs a tap rather than the file. `NotAllowedError` is reported as
unsupported for that reason: it cannot be told apart from a refusal, and
a toast about activation is not something a reader can act on.
The share strings are contextual keys rather than the existing "Share…".
That one means granting another account access, and several languages use
a different verb for it -- German had "Freigeben" where the sheet wants
"Teilen". Three new strings, in all nine catalogues.
The manifest gains `launch_handler: navigate-existing`, so a mailto:, a
shortcut or a notification tapped while ihasmail is running arrives in
the copy that is running: two windows on one inbox disagree about what
has been read. `focus-existing` would have been wrong -- it only focuses
and leaves the target URL to launchQueue, which nothing here consumes, so
it would swallow the mailto. There is deliberately still no `id`, and the
manifest now says why: it is the one member resolved against the origin
of start_url rather than against the manifest's own address, so no
relative form can name a subpath mount, and the default id already is
start_url -- writing one now would give every installed copy a new
identity and orphan it as a second app.
Verified by test rather than on a device: the extension driving Chrome
was not connected, and Chrome on Linux has no Web Share to drive anyway.
The preview dialog is covered by a component test that stubs the browser
both ways.
Contacts and calendars disagreed on a re-import: a vCard or LDIF entry
whose identity a book already held overwrote the card there (#242, #274),
while an event whose UID a calendar held was counted and thrown away
(#222). The asymmetry was never decided -- it was where each half stopped.
Decided on #279: calendars update too, with two properties held back.
`participants` carries every attendee's accepted/declined and
`recurrenceOverrides` holds every "just this Wednesday" edit made here.
Both are decisions taken after the file was written, and a file that
mentions them at all describes them as they were at export, so writing
either one over would destroy work silently and return no error. A
corrected export now fixes the time, the title and the location, and
leaves who said yes alone. `uid` is held back with them: it is what the
two were matched on, so it is already equal.
The scan returns uid -> id rather than a set of UIDs, since updating
needs something to address, and creates and updates now share one
`maxObjectsInSet` budget the way contacts' `writeCards` does -- 300 new
and 300 changed batched separately would be two calls of 300, neither
over a ceiling of 500 and both refused. Counts become created/updated,
reported as the contacts import reports them.
Still no scheduling messages, on an update as much as on a create. That
is a real cost -- an event a re-import moves is moved here and nowhere
else -- and it is the lesser one: an import is not the place to start
mailing a room full of people who never asked for it.
Driven against the mock end to end: a second file with the same UID
updated the event in place, took the file's title, start and location,
and left an accepted RSVP and a per-occurrence override untouched even
though the file carried participants of its own.
On a phone the folder list is the drawer, so it is also where a new folder
is started -- and the New folder dialog was stacked at 900 against the
drawer's 950, so it opened behind the folder list with only a sliver
showing past the drawer's right edge. Unusable: the name field and the
Cancel button were both underneath.
The same trigger, the same fault, one layer down: Compose in the drawer
opens a full-screen composer, and at 800 that came up behind the drawer
too.
A modal has to outrank the navigation that raised it. The dialog backdrop
goes to 960 and the composer dock to 955, which keeps every relationship
those two already had -- a dialog still clears a composer, popovers,
tooltips and toasts still clear both -- and adds the one that was missing.
Desktop is untouched: the drawer's z-index only exists below 768px, and
nothing sat between 800 and 960 anywhere else.
The stack is now written down beside `.dialog-backdrop`, and guarded by a
test on the stylesheet rather than a component test: jsdom has no paint
order, so nothing in a rendered tree can tell that a dialog is behind the
drawer that opened it.
No user-visible strings change; the nine catalogues are untouched, and the
fallback count holds at 16 in each.
Every catalogue was at 1,255 of 1,279 with 24 strings rendering English.
Eight of those are real UI text and are now translated in all nine
languages: the five sort options that had no entry while their opposites
did (Read first beside Unread first, Unstarred first beside Starred
first, Smallest first beside Largest first, and the two alphabetical
directions), and the three sentences behind the link and external-sender
warnings. Each follows the phrasing its own catalogue already used for
the sibling it sits next to.
The remaining sixteen are left in English deliberately, because
translating them would be wrong: product and project names, the sample
addresses in placeholder text, bare URL prefixes, the ellipsis used as a
masked value, and two mail header names.
Per locale: 1,263 of 1,279, up from 1,255.
**The stale list is not touched, and should not be cleaned blindly.** The
checker reports 41 keys as translated-but-never-looked-up, and some of
them are live. "Classic" is the clearest: the palette picker renders it
through translate(p.name) from a constant, so the extractor sees no
literal, while the German "Klassisch" it would delete is the exact fix
issue #247 asked for. "Add star" and "Remove star" are the same shape,
reached through a ternary in a JSX label. Teaching the extractor those
two call sites is the prerequisite for trusting that list.
Catppuccin, Solarized, Ayu, Kanagawa, Everforest and Primer, each with the
light and dark variant its own project publishes: Latte and Mocha, Lotus
and Wave, and so on. Values were fetched from each project's own repository
and recorded in .palette-sources/palettes-upstream.md, with the two tiers
no project publishes marked derived rather than passed off as upstream.
Four candidates were rejected rather than adapted. Nord and Synthwave '84
publish no light variant, and inventing one is not porting a theme.
Monokai is proprietary and its licence forbids redistribution. Material
Theme has become a commercial product whose repository no longer publishes
a palette at all.
Body text is now lifted for contrast like every other text tone rather
than exempted and merely checked. Most of these palettes target their own
~4.5:1 for body text where ihasmail asks 7:1, so the old rule would have
rejected five of the six on a bar their designers never aimed at. Nudging
the published colour along its own hue is what the script already does for
muted text, links and accents, and every shift is printed in the generated
CSS: Solarized light moves 4.13 to 7.07, Primer needed nothing at all.
Primer is named for the design system, not for GitHub. The colour values
are MIT; the name and the logo are trademarks, and NOTICE says plainly
that nothing here is endorsed.
The picker grid already wrapped on its own, so twelve cards needed no
layout change.
The hint under the theme picker listed the third-party palettes by name.
That sentence is translated into nine languages, so every palette added
meant rewriting it, retranslating it nine times, and leaving the previous
version behind as a stale key nothing looks up.
It now describes the rule instead of enumerating the cases: a palette
named after another project is that project's work, used under its own
licence. True of the four here, true of the next one, and true without
saying "MIT" for a palette that might not be. The names are already in
Settings beside each swatch and in NOTICE with their copyright lines,
which is where a credit belongs.
Swapped rather than added in all nine catalogues, so the old key is gone
rather than left stale: 1,255 of 1,279 translated per locale, unchanged,
and the 41 pre-existing stale keys are neither added to nor cleaned up
here.
Appearance gained "Apply the theme to messages too" some time ago, and it
themes an HTML message only when the message brings no colours of its own.
That predicate is the right default and it almost never passes: one
`color:#FFFFFF` on one button label opts a whole message out, so in real
mail — receipts, shipping notices, anything from a template — the switch
did nothing at all and the reader kept a bright white card on a dark UI.
A second switch, off by default and only meaningful with the first on,
forces the palette over the sender's colours. It cannot be done perfectly,
which is why it is a separate, explicit choice: the same bargain a
dark-reader extension makes.
What it does is tell two kinds of colour apart. A *sheet* the design sits
on — the white 600px wrapper — is neutralised, and a *painted surface* —
a call to action, a footer banner — is kept whole so its label stays
legible on it. Relative luminance decides, at 0.5: white wrappers sit at
1.0, a blue button near 0.09. Only the painted ones are marked, with
data-ihm-keep, and one rule in EMAIL_BASE_CSS neutralises everything else.
Nothing the sender wrote is removed, so the switch is reversible, colours
arriving from a <style> block are covered as well as inline ones, and
print still pins the tokens to ink on white.
The mock grew the message this is about: an outer wrapper on
bgcolor="#ffffff", a <style> block, a coloured button, a grey footer.
Without one, neither the bug nor the fix could be seen.
Verified in a browser against the mock: with only the first switch on the
card is still white; with both, the wrapper computes to transparent, body
text follows the theme, and the button keeps white-on-blue. Two surfaces
marked, which are the two the message paints.
Closes#290
A signed message now says whether that holds up, as it is read. This is
verification only: nothing here signs, encrypts or decrypts, and the
private-key question that blocks those is untouched. Verifying needed
none of it, because the certificate travels inside the message -- which
is why this is the half that could be built.
What it checks. For multipart/signed carrying PKCS#7, the exact bytes of
the signed part -- headers included, canonicalised to CRLF -- are hashed
against the messageDigest attribute, and the signature over the signed
attributes is verified with WebCrypto against the certificate inside the
message. RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 and ECDSA over P-256/384/521, with SHA-256, 384
or 512.
The trust model is the design, and it is deliberately small. A browser
has no system trust store, and the certificate arrives inside the
message, so anyone can self-sign as anyone: on its own a good signature
shows only that the sender held the key they attached. So the word
"verified" is never rendered, and the reassuring case is not the loud
one. What carries the weight is remembering -- the first signed message
from an address pins its fingerprint, later ones are compared, and a
signer that changed is reported with both names and told to check by
another route. Trust on first use, no certificate authority anywhere.
The pins live in the account's settings rather than the browser: one
that only a single device knew would greet the same correspondent as new
everywhere else, which is how people are trained to click past the one
warning that matters. A pin records the message that created it, so the
message that established a signer keeps saying so instead of appearing
to be corroborated by itself -- without that, the very first signed
message anybody receives reads as "the same signer as before", where
before is itself. A changed, mismatched or expired signer is never
pinned, since writing the anomaly into the baseline makes every later
message agree with it.
Three things are declined rather than attempted, and all three say
"could not check" rather than "does not check out", because ignorance
and an accusation are different claims:
- OpenPGP, by name. The signature carries no key and there is nowhere
to get the sender's: x:PublicKey is the account's OWN registry, and
a keyserver or WKD lookup would tell a third party who you
correspond with -- the leak the image proxy exists to close.
- SHA-1. Not forgeable in practice today, still not something to put a
tick beside.
- RSA-PSS, whose salt length lives in parameters this does not read.
Guessing wrong would report a good signature as bad.
Nothing validates a chain: no CA bundle is shipped and revocation is not
checked. "Issued by" reports what the certificate claims, and a
self-signed one claims itself.
The DER, CMS, X.509 and MIME readers are hand-written and deliberately
narrow -- no new dependency, and the whole verifier is a lazily imported
8.6 kB chunk that a reader of unsigned mail never downloads. The one
place this is easy to get quietly wrong has its own function and its own
test: signed attributes are signed as a SET OF, not as the [0] IMPLICIT
they arrive as, and hashing the message instead would make every
signature "pass".
Tested against real `openssl smime -sign` output rather than hand-built
fixtures -- RSA, ECDSA, a tampered copy, and a valid signature by a
certificate for somebody else -- because a signed message written by
hand only agrees with whatever its author believed the format to be.
Also driven in a browser against the mock, which now serves three real
signed messages so every branch of the banner is reachable.
Translations: 34 new strings in all nine catalogues, 306 entries.
Falling back to English is unchanged at 24 per language.
Raised on #174 as the other half of a migration -- import, notice
something is wrong, empty the book, correct the export, import again --
and tracked as #277.
The gap turned out to be wider than the ask. Contacts had no multi-select
at all: the only delete in the module was the cross on a single card's
pane, one card and one confirmation at a time. `destroyCards` has taken a
list and batched it against maxObjectsInSet since #218, and nothing in
the UI ever handed it more than one id. So "empty this address book" was
missing, and so was "delete these fourteen".
The list now has checkboxes, on hover the way the message list's are, and
always on a touchscreen where there is no hover to reveal them.
Shift-click takes the run between two rows. The search box gives way to a
selection bar rather than sitting beside it, because what the count
promises is what the search left on screen. A selection is cleared when
the book being shown changes, since carrying it across would leave a
count describing rows that are no longer there and a Delete aimed at
them.
Emptying a book is in the book's own menu, beside the import and export
that moved there in #226, and separate from Delete, which takes the book
with it. A default book cannot be deleted and can perfectly well be
emptied, which is most of the reason it is its own entry.
The part that is not a deletion, and the reason this is not one destroy
over everything in the book: a card filed in two books belongs to both,
and `ContactCard/set destroy` takes it away from both at once. Emptying
one book must not empty another, so a card with a second home is patched
out of this one and left alone. That is reported separately afterwards,
because it would otherwise look like contacts that refused to go.
`destroyCards` now answers with what the server confirmed rather than
throwing on the first refusal. A refusal that took half a selection with
it still deleted the other half, and an error saying only that it failed
sends somebody looking for contacts that are already gone. Both callers
report the count and the reason apart.
Emptying a shared book is deliberately not offered: the cards live in the
owner's account and this client has no path to write there.
One bug found by driving the built app rather than by any test, and worth
recording because of where it hid. The range a shift-click covers was
measured inside the `setPicked` updater -- which React runs when it gets
round to rendering, by which time the anchor ref has already been moved
to the row that *ended* the range. Every shift-click selected exactly one
row, and every store assertion still passed, because nothing was wrong
below the component. The anchor is read before the updater now, and the
contacts view has its first component tests: ten of them, six of which
fail if the measurement moves back inside.
Twelve new strings, in all nine catalogues, so nothing new falls back to
English.
Replying to a thread whose last message I sent addressed the reply to me:
Reply put my own address in To, and Reply all put me in To with everyone
I had actually written to demoted to Cc. Following up on your own last
message is an ordinary thing to do, and this made it useless.
There was already a guard for exactly this, and the guard was sound. What
it rested on was not. It asked whether an address was in the identity
list, and that question has a wrong answer in more situations than it has
a right one:
- the list is empty until identities load;
- an alias or a shared mailbox is not in it at all;
- it compared lowercased strings with `includes` where the rest of the
codebase uses `sameAddress`, so an identity address stored with
whitespace was enough to break it;
- the check ran on the address the reply was about to go to rather than
on the sender, so a message of mine carrying a Reply-To skipped it
entirely and my reply went to my own desk;
- and the Reply all branch never filtered my own address out of To, though
the Reply branch did.
Every one of those failed silently, which is why five of them accumulated.
So the folder is asked first: a message in Sent is mine whatever address
it went out as, and `mailboxIds` is already fetched in LIST_PROPS with
roleId("sent") on the mail store, so this costs no request. The identity
list stays as a second opinion, now compared with `sameAddress`, and the
whole test keys off the sender rather than off the computed recipient.
Two cases remain unanswerable and are commented rather than papered over:
a message from an unlisted alias that is not in Sent either, and any
message at all when identities failed to load and it is not in Sent.
Neither signal exists. Both are far narrower than what was broken.
Reply addressing had no tests at all, which is how a guard this
load-bearing came to be wrong five ways at once. Fifteen now, seven of
which fail against the old code.
Reported again by the submitter's colleague at LINET after #223 was
closed: duplicate checking was implemented for vCard and never for LDIF,
so re-importing an address book still leaves a second copy of everything.
That was deliberate at the time -- the matching key was an open question
I did not want to answer alone -- but the answer had already been given
on #174 and I closed the issue without acting on it.
The answer, in the submitter's words: an attribute that *can* change is
fine, because it will not have changed between two imports minutes apart.
An import is not a sync. That makes the `dn` usable -- it is the only
identity the file carries, and Mozilla's schema defines no UID -- and it
needs no guessing at all, unlike the name-plus-email fallback I had been
weighing.
So `uidFromDn` derives a namespaced, stable uid from the distinguished
name, normalised for the case and spacing two exports of one directory
differ in. A card the book already holds under that uid is updated rather
than duplicated, merged the way the vCard import merges: what the file
carries wins, what it does not mention is left alone. Reported as created
and updated, which is the pair that was asked for.
Three things worth knowing:
Matching is per address book, so two customer directories that each hold
a `cn=John Smith` stay two people as long as they are filed separately.
Imported into one book they would merge, which is the one way this can be
wrong and the reason the escape hatch is worth naming.
The look-alike count stays, and now means something narrower: entries
that `dn` matching could not catch -- one whose `dn` moved between
exports, and anything imported before there was a `dn` to match on. Those
are still only counted, never merged.
A file holding two entries under one `dn` is malformed, since a directory
cannot, and now becomes one card instead of two sharing an identity.
FEATURES gains the re-import behaviour for both formats; it documented
neither.
Found by widening the coverage check to plural() forms in every file rather
than the two being worked on. Seven counted strings in the Files view and the
event editor had never been in any of the nine catalogues, so they rendered in
English whatever language was chosen.
Not a regression from the recent work -- they have been missing since the
features landed, and every earlier scan looked at t("literal") sites and the
plurals of whichever file was in hand.
All nine languages, one commit rather than nine: this is a single gap in a
check rather than a translation pass, and splitting it per language would
suggest nine decisions where there is one.
Ticking "select all" disabled every keyboard shortcut until the reader clicked
somewhere else (#260). Same for the per-message checkboxes, so selecting a few
messages and pressing e to archive them did nothing.
The guard that stops "a" archiving while you are typing into the search box
tested `tagName === "INPUT"`. That is also true of a checkbox, and a checkbox
keeps focus after a click -- correctly, since space should toggle it again.
So the guard was suppressing shortcuts for an element that swallows no
keystroke: space is handled by the browser before this listener runs.
The question is not "is this an input" but "does this input take text", which
is what isTextEntry now asks. A <select> counts, in the sense that matters
here: typing a letter jumps to the option starting with it, and a shortcut
would steal that.
Thirteen checkboxes and seven file inputs across the app were affected, not

The regression test was checked against the old guard first: it fails there
and passes here, which is the only thing that makes it a regression test.
#261 rebuilt the Sieve rule summaries and the recurrence descriptions as whole
sentences with placeholders, so that a translator can move the parts rather
than being handed " and " on its own. This is the Ukrainian half of that.
32 strings and 9 plural forms. The ordinals are words -- there is no suffix to
append here, which was the point -- and the day and item lists are joined by
Intl.ListFormat rather than a translated separator.

Both describeRule functions assembled their output by concatenation, which no
catalogue could fix. A translator handed " and " or " on " in isolation cannot
move it: German puts the verb last, Japanese does not separate list items with
a word at all, and the fragments arrive in an order the English sentence chose.
Reported by a native speaker reviewing the German catalogue (#247), whose "the
summaries" item is the Sieve one.
Every branch is now one whole sentence with placeholders, so a translator
rewrites the sentence including its word order. Joining is Intl.ListFormat,
which gives "A, B und C" for an allof rule and the language's own disjunction
for anyof, rather than a hardcoded " and " that would be wrong twice over.
The recurrence tail no longer appends: ", 5 times" and ", until 2026-05-03"
wrap the sentence they qualify, so a language that puts the limit first can.
Ordinals become words. The old suffix table -- st, nd, rd, th, picked by
arithmetic -- is English spelling rules in code, and no catalogue can reach a
suffix chosen that way. German writes "1.", Japanese "第1". nthOfPeriod is 1-5
or -1 in practice, so five words and "last" cover it.
WEEKDAYS is gone. Its long names could have been catalogue entries but its
short ones never could: "T" is Tuesday and Thursday, "S" is Saturday and
Sunday, and a catalogue cannot hold two translations under one key. That was
bad data rather than missing translation, and Intl has every name in every
locale in three widths. lib/datetime.ts gains weekdayName, weekdayNames and
formatList; recurrence.ts keeps WEEKDAY_KEYS for the ordering, which is not a
language question.
Adds the first tests either function has had. Neither had any, and no test
would have caught what was wrong with them, since the English output was
correct -- so these pin the two properties that actually matter: fragments go
through the catalogue, and the joining is Intl's.
32 strings and 9 plural forms are new and land with each language.
Verified: typecheck clean, 1009 tests pass.
