Full Changelog: v0.5.0...v0.5.1

IDEA-inspired Workspace v0.5.0

• Inspect exact CSS on every activation; recover missing patches after same-version reinstalls, and suppress repeated failed authorization attempts for unchanged targets.
• Preserve user edits/deletions across automatic upgrades with released ownership; explicit Apply rebases undo to the current user choice. Batch palette writes and restoration.
• Add on-disk/missing/outdated/error/pending-reload status and a native Reload Window action. Avoid claims that an on-disk marker proves a live renderer state.
• Back off unavailable/failed Java providers from 2 to 60 seconds, retain cooldown while typing, and ignore unrelated document changes.
• Keep Restore available with missing logo files and retain reload recovery state when settings restoration fails.
