Research direction

No source file, test, or diagnostic artifact is identified. Start by reproducing the Outlook crash and slowdown with Keyboard Manager enabled after upgrading from v0.100.1, then collect the requested bug report data; done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that mouse use and cold-start performance no longer regress.
