Owner requirement (2026-10-07) for split views (several pane cards: terminals and later VNC):

Inside every card, both vertical and horizontal scrolling work: terminal scrollback vertically, and horizontally where content is wider than the card; a VNC framebuffer pans in both axes when larger than the card.
The canvas of cards can also be navigated in both directions when the cards do not all fit the viewport.
This must work on touch (iPhone PWA) and with mouse wheel, trackpad and keyboard. The gesture model (which surface a scroll goes to) is a grill question.

Builds on #33 (the pane cards) and #44 (mobile scroll goes to the card, not the page).

Owner decision D118: (c) nested scrolling plus explicit canvas gestures, and the active card shows an accent-colour border highlight.
