Frontend cleanup pass driven by the post-shadcn review.
Performance
- Memoize PhotoThumbnail and route cell click/double-click through
stable handlers so heap-membership invalidation no longer re-renders
every visible thumbnail.
- Cap usePhotosQuery's eager background page-walk at 20 pages with a
50ms inter-page yield — was unbounded (up to 100k photos cold).
- Drop the per-thumbnail loading spinner in favour of the existing
pulse skeleton; only retry state still surfaces a spinner.
UX
- Coalesce rapid X/U presses into a single undo entry + one toast
(1.2s window) so accidental bursts are easy to back out.
- Optimistic rating/color updates with per-id snapshot rollback on
error, matching the existing discard pattern.
- Section-aware empty timeline state with a Clear-all-filters CTA.
- Carry the search-match chip from the grid into the preview header.
- Add a basket-icon badge for active heap membership so the green
tint isn't the only signal (colorblind-safe).
- Standardise error toasts via formatApiError(): FastAPI detail,
validation arrays, axios message, with a 'Network Error' filter.
Architecture
- Extract useBulkPhotoMutations and stop duplicating
bulkRating/bulkColor across RightSidebar and useKeyboardShortcuts.
- Split RightSidebar (714 -> 448 LOC) and PhotoInfoPanel (952 -> 716)
into co-located sub-components: BulkTakenAtEditor, BulkTagsEditor,
TagsEditor, TakenAtEditor.

Adopts shadcn/ui components (Dialog, Button, Input, Select, Popover,
Command, Checkbox, Switch, Toggle, Calendar, etc.) across the app,
replacing hand-rolled modals, dropdowns, and form controls. Adds a
reusable cmdk-backed MultiSelect for the Type, Tags, and Flag filters
so all multi-value filter popovers share one component and layout.

Renders a thin top-of-cell banner on each photo while a text search
is active, labelling which metadata field matched (filename, title,
note, tag, or EXIF key name) and showing a short excerpt with the
exact matched substring highlighted in amber. Extends the list
endpoint's search to also match photos whose tag names contain the
query so tags show up alongside filename/title/notes/EXIF hits.

Lets operators fix corrupted capture dates at scale. Adds an editable
Date Taken field with a folder/filename-derived suggestion hint, a bulk
Date Taken section in the multi-select sidebar that either applies one
date to the whole selection or infers a per-photo date from each path,
a warning badge on thumbnails whose stored date disagrees with the
path, and a "Date issues" filter pill so suspicious photos can be
surfaced and fixed as a group. Edits are written back to EXIF on disk
so rescans don't clobber the fix.
