Research direction
Reproduce the panic by binding ToggleHelp in CommandMode, then start at internal/views/splits.go:409 and follow the calls through internal/action/bufpane.go:548-559 and actions.go:1419. Check the behavior on the reported Linux and Windows scenarios; done means ToggleHelp no longer panics when invoked from CommandMode.
