Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the issue at call.pro.element.io in spotlight layout while watching a screen share and having several people speak. Start by tracing the right-hand speaker column and its scrolling or active-speaker behavior; done means the current speaker remains visible in that column without switching layouts.
