+###2026.03.23.08
+- Fix: Kept the Dashboard widget action rail visible from the start of `Legacy` view exits instead of waiting for the async widget rebuild to begin.
+- Quality: Cleared per-widget `Legacy` transition state on failed or superseded view switches so quick-rail visibility does not get stuck.
+- Test: Expanded Dashboard layout regression coverage for early transition-state activation during `Legacy` view switches.

 ###2026.03.23.07
 - Fix: Kept the Dashboard widget action rail visible during `Legacy` view transitions by tracking per-widget layout rebuild state instead of hiding the rail while cards are temporarily absent.
 - Quality: Hardened the Dashboard quick-rail visibility logic so it treats local widget rebuilds as an active state rather than a collapsed/empty widget.
