- Improved **thumbnail responsiveness**: visible thumbnails are now queued with higher priority than background prefetch.
- Improved **prefetch stability/performance**: prefetch work runs on daemon threads and cleans up finished futures.
- UI tweaks: recycle-bin details text is selectable and uses updated colors; metadata filename now shows RAW extension when present (e.g., `IMG_0001.JPG + ORF`).
- Helicon Focus: Avoid a race condition by deferring deletion of temporary file lists until app shutdown.

Typo: "Speak Line" should be "Spark Line".

The AI summary and PR description reference a "spark line" progress visualization, not "speak line."

In `@README.md` at line 15, Replace the incorrect phrase "Speak Line" with "Spark
Line" wherever it appears (starting with the README entry that currently reads
"**Speak Line**: In grid view...") and also update any references in the PR
description or AI summary to use "Spark Line" so the terminology is consistent
across docs.
