Research direction

Start by reproducing the linked Hatch app with WinAppSDK 2.1 in SDR and HDR modes, then compare the transparent-window behavior. Check whether changing to WinAppSDK 1.5.8 affects the border; done means establishing a reproducible framework issue or a version-specific workaround.
