+investigated and neither fit a discrete code change. The "save-state versioned-migration
+regression fixture... the one real save-state gap found" premise was stale —
+`System::load_state` was always designed to fail loudly on an older-format blob (never to
+migrate one), by deliberate choice recorded since the `FORMAT_VERSION` `2`/`3` bumps, and a
+regression fixture proving exactly that has existed since `v0.7.0`
+(`save_state_backward_compat.rs`). Closed as verified-non-issue; the 10-slot/thumbnail Save
+States manager itself is already at full parity. The keyboard-only-navigation audit was found to
+be a manual-walkthrough task, not a bug with a discrete fix (egui's own default Tab order is used
+everywhere; nothing custom, nothing known-broken, but nothing walked/confirmed either) —
+documented as an explicit open item in `docs/frontend.md`'s Theme section rather than converted
+into a hollow "audit passed" claim. See `docs/frontend.md` for the full explanation of both.
