Research direction

Start with the account-switching and theme-persistence entry points identified while tracing the reproduction steps in Telegram Desktop 2.1.14 Beta. Verify how the current theme is stored and applied when accounts change; done means each account retains its own theme and switching accounts updates the interface accordingly.
