Feature history on the left side, with contiguous folders (#449)

The feature history can sit in a panel on the left, with folders that hold one unbroken run of features, drag and drop as one undo step, and a resizable divider. Timeline folders save under format 17.

 | M5 | Persistent naming of faces and edges (docs/book/src/dev/naming.md): faces named from their exact kernel-reported history (sketch curve sides, caps, revolve sections, primitive sides, blends, shell inner walls, pattern/mirror copies; split pieces told apart by the faces around them, lumps of a cut body named after their faces), edges by their faces; fillets/chamfers, sketches on faces, shell/draft/offset/replace faces, hole placements, joint origins and face appearances resolve by name first and warn when the entity split or vanished: done. sheet metal edges by base sketch line and flange side, shell inner faces, sweep and loft roles: done. kernel-reported face history: done (merged faces answer to every name; operations without history yet fall back to geometric names, flagged unverified; format 14 keeps older designs' geometric names). Left: history through sheet metal, plastic, surface and emboss features; FaceSource certificates through history | in progress | 20 |
-| M6 | UI depth: selection feedback and origin (done), timeline editing (done: hover and selection highlight modifier faces, including fillets and chamfers; edit feature, history marker drag, reorder with dependency checks, suppress, rename, delete with dependents, re-resolved references; redefining selections refreshes persistent edge/face references while retaining feature identity and dimension names), right-docked dialogs (done), live previews for every feature dialog (done), keyboard-first commands with on-canvas value boxes and sketch inline dimensions (done), drag manipulators with automatic join/cut (done: extrude incl. two sides, fillet, shell, hole depth, move, pattern spacing, revolve rotator; taper handle open), dark theme (done), right-click menu with Repeat (done), measure tool (done), section analysis (done), selection filter (done), drag-solve of sketch points (done); appearance controls now preserve body/face/component targeting, named transparent looks, reuse/search and override removal; preferences | in progress | 6 |

 | M7 | Sweep, loft (incl. to a point), rib and web (to next / depth), emboss (planar faces and exact radial emboss/deboss of bounded orthogonal profiles on complete exterior cylinders/sleeves), thread (cosmetic, and modelled M3–M20 outside and inside: the ISO profile screwed in as a faceted cut), coil (smooth B-spline helical walls), pipe, pattern on path, patterns of bodies and components, replace face (parallel), align, remove, feature copy/paste: done. Unique eligible cylindrical targets are inferred for new Emboss features. Left: general curved-face emboss and exact (unfaceted) modelled threads | in progress | 12 |
 | M8 | Surface workspace (#772). Done: Patch (sketch regions; edge loops filled G0), Stitch, Thicken (planes and cylinders), Extend (straight edges of planar surfaces), Trim (by a plane or a face), Delete Face (healing), Boundary Fill, zebra/draft/curvature-map analysis. Proposed, in order: surface Extrude/Revolve/Sweep/Loft from open and closed curves (#757), Offset surface (#758), Unstitch and Reverse Normal (#766), Delete Face without healing (#768); Extend curved faces and edges (#760), mutual trim and trim by projected curves (#767), Untrim (#761), Thicken every surface kind (#765); Ruled (#762), Boundary surface and curve networks with G0/G1/G2 (#763), Patch with G1/G2 and general loops (#759), Blend surface (#764), sweep rails, twist and scale (#771, loft rails #201), fillet between surface bodies (#769); continuity analysis, surface curvature combs and isocurves (#770) | deferred | — |
 | M9 | Components and assemblies: New Component / Create Components from Bodies, active component, per-component origin/bodies/sketches/timeline entries, occurrences with transforms, Copy/Paste vs Paste New, nested Browser tree with visibility and isolate; Ground, Move/Copy of occurrences, joints (rigid, revolute, slider, cylindrical, pin-slot, planar, ball) by joint origins with limits and Drive Joints, As-built Joint, Rigid Group, Contact Sets (driving and motion studies stop where bodies in a set would pass through each other), Motion Study (joint values keyed along a timeline, playback, export of occurrence positions as JSON/CSV), Exploded views (automatic or by hand, shown without changing placements); interference, per-component physical properties; STEP with assembly structure. Physical properties now measure material-aware component/occurrence placements, descendants and repeated instances, including pending moves and body reassignment offsets; contact geometry and automatic exploded centres respect those offsets. Groundwork done: component tree, occurrences with transforms (instances, Paste New), world placement, active component as authoring frame, ground, Capture/Revert Position, moving bodies and sketches. UI: ASSEMBLE panel dialogs for New Component, Joint (snaps on faces, edges, circles and vertices; animated motion preview; offsets, flip, limits), As-built Joint, Joint Origin, Rigid Group, Drive Joints (live slider), Motion Link and Interference (overlaps shown red); joints in the timeline and the Browser | in progress | 32 |
