Migrated from LOTUS_TODO.md on 2026-09-17 (the file is now reference-only).

M2 — touch discoverability — message quick-reactions/actions are hover-gated; long-press is the fallback but is unreliable on iOS Safari (deep audit). A visible touch affordance is needed but the naive fix hides unread badges / clutters messages (member-profile-style redesign).

M2 — message action/quick-reaction touch discoverability — hover-gated + iOS-long-press-unreliable; a visible touch affordance collides with unread-badge placement / per-message clutter → needs a design decision + device look.

Likely resolved by #166 (long-press bottom sheet) — decide there first, then close or scope this.

#166 is implemented (long-press → bottom sheet with quick reactions + the full action list; nothing added per message, so no badge collision). Pending the real-device check on #166; close both together once it passes.
