Shrinking a dashboard's canvas silently clipped whatever now fell past the
bottom edge: `maxRows` constrains a drag and nothing else, so a stored placement
is corrected against the column count alone. Nothing warned, and nothing offered
a way out.
The remedy is a notice rather than a reflow, because the canvas height is
written on every keystroke — typing 400 passes through 4 and 40, and anything
that moved widgets would flatten the arrangement while the number was still
being typed. The notice carries the reflow as its one button, and packing is
sideways because the grid already compacts vertically: nothing below the canvas
has room above it.
Dropping a widget also selected it, which opened its panel, which rescaled the
canvas under the pointer. The drag handle was simply missing from the selector
that already exempts the resize handle — which is why resizing never had this
problem.
Also: an icon rule's caption could only be set through the API, and the panel
rail drew two letters where a dashboard can now carry a lucide icon.
