Unknown or stale path: previous folder's rows stay listed under a "/ / name" breadcrumb, with a raw "Load failed" error line #667

Found in the #656 QA pass (v0.6.247, files.c0rdyceps.ch).

Matrix row: §2 (listing) / style guide, Empty states and Voice.

Steps

  1. Be in Personal / _qa.
  2. Go to a path that doesn't exist, e.g. #/favorites typed or pasted by hand. This is the same situation as a stale bookmark or a link to a folder someone has since deleted.

Expected: an honest, translated not-found state ("This folder no longer exists" + a way back to Personal), with an empty list.

Seen

  • Breadcrumb renders / / favorites: empty segments, lowercase raw path.
  • The list still shows the previous folder's six rows (sub/, qa-doc, …) with Upload and New enabled. A user could upload into what they believe is the linked folder.
  • The status line under the panel reads Load failed: not found: file does not exist: a raw server error string, in monospace, untranslated.
