Owner

Found by the #656 QA pass, §2 admin scouting (v0.6.247, files-bao). Read-only: the dialog was opened and cancelled, and nothing was transferred.

Matrix row: §9 Admin — "Departed owners | … fact-row dialogs per the canon …".

Steps: Administration → Sharing → Departed owners (1) → sharer2 → Transfer ownership.

Seen:

The full-handover option reads "Everything in /home/sharer2 — computing…" and stays that way. It was checked at 4 s and again at 12 s after reopening. The UI's /api/v1/admin/owners/estate request completes (200, about 47 ms) but the size/count never renders. The option is pre-selected, so an admin would commit to a full handover without knowing its size, although the dialog says the transfer "refuses before anything moves" if quota can't fit.
New owner is a bare native <input> (2px inset rgb(118,118,118), radius 0) placed inline after its label. The dialogs canon and every other dialog use the styled field with the label above it.
The "Only the shared items — 0 items, 1 public link" option is disabled with "Nothing is shared — only the full handover is available". But the account does have 1 public link, so "nothing is shared" contradicts the line above it.

The Revoke all dialog next to it follows the canon well: fact rows, "Revoke 1 record" primary, and a permanence note.

Found by the #656 QA pass, §2 admin scouting (v0.6.247, files-bao). Read-only: the dialog was opened and cancelled, and nothing was transferred. **Matrix row:** §9 Admin — "Departed owners | … fact-row dialogs per the canon …". **Steps:** Administration → Sharing → Departed owners (1) → sharer2 → **Transfer ownership**. **Seen:** 1. The full-handover option reads **"Everything in /home/sharer2 — computing…"** and stays that way. It was checked at 4 s and again at 12 s after reopening. The UI's `/api/v1/admin/owners/estate` request completes (200, about 47 ms) but the size/count never renders. The option is pre-selected, so an admin would commit to a full handover without knowing its size, although the dialog says the transfer "refuses before anything moves" if quota can't fit. 2. **New owner** is a bare native `<input>` (`2px inset rgb(118,118,118)`, radius 0) placed inline after its label. The dialogs canon and every other dialog use the styled field with the label above it. 3. The "Only the shared items — 0 items, 1 public link" option is disabled with "Nothing is shared — only the full handover is available". But the account *does* have 1 public link, so "nothing is shared" contradicts the line above it. The **Revoke all** dialog next to it follows the canon well: fact rows, "Revoke 1 record" primary, and a permanence note. **Screenshots:** `656-admin-departed-transfer-dlg.jpg`, `656-admin-departed-revoke-dlg.jpg`
