PatchEntryField already took a field name; what was missing was carrying it
from the row. It travels in the detail row itself rather than being guessed
from the label - a caption is prose, and the day it changes the page would
send a field name that does not exist, or quietly stop offering the edit.
Delphi does not take it on trust either: four names accepted, the rest
refused. The snapshot also carries tombstones, attachments and timestamps
that PatchEntryField would overwrite without understanding them.
An empty row now shows IF it can be filled - a missing username you cannot
add is a dead end. Emptying is allowed, except on a password, where it would
almost always be a slip; the refusal says so rather than doing nothing.
Show only appears on a masked field: on a site in clear it has nothing to
reveal, and would in fact hide it. A note keeps only Name and Content - a
site and a username mean nothing there.
Pull, patch, re-encrypt, publish - in that order, and against the SERVER's
snapshot rather than the local cache. That is what replaces the merge the plan
asked for: anything untouched is already everyone's newest version, so there is
nothing to reconcile.
The only conflict left is another device publishing between our read and our
write. Gitea refuses it on the sha with a 409, and the whole cycle repeats,
decryption included, since the content changed. Three attempts: past that the
other device is publishing in a loop and insisting would not help.
The editable field is marked in Delphi rather than recognised by its caption in
the page. A caption is prose; the day it changes, matching on it would silently
stop offering the edit.
The editor is inline rather than window.prompt: a JavaScript prompt needs a
WebChromeClient that FMX does not provide, and prompt() then returns null
without a word - the button would appear to do nothing. The value shows in
clear while typing, deliberately: you are entering a password you cannot read
back anywhere else, and masking it would mean confirming a keystroke blind.
This is the one command that carries a secret over the bridge, agreed
beforehand. It stays in the process, the iframe carrying it is destroyed, and
the handler logs the action only - never the query.
Only the password is editable. Creating or deleting an entry would need
tombstones and uuid generation, and changing a password covers the need
without either.

The FMX controls lost this one on merit. Every screen re-taught the same lessons: a template missing from the loaded style, an alignment order left to chance, a HitTest swallowing a tap, a native view painting over everything. The engine draws the same interface in forty lines of CSS and shapes Arabic on its own.
The bridge needs no local server, so no port is open on the device: evaluateJavascript carries the data down, an intercepted cmd:// navigation carries the actions up. Through a throwaway iframe - FMX always tells the engine it did not handle the navigation, which on an unknown scheme replaces the page with an error screen.
Secrets do not travel over that bridge. The list gets names, sites and usernames, which are already on screen; copying from a row sends an index and Delphi reads the vault itself. Only the open entry has its values in the JS heap, and PM.wipe clears them on lock.
Folders become a row of chips with counts instead of a full-screen panel: one tap, and the count says what to expect.
Also gone: about eight hundred lines of the screen this replaces.
