Replaces the auto-renumbered 1..N position key with operator-OWNED page
numbers: sparse, gaps allowed, editable, never auto-renumbered. Order follows
the numbers; unnumbered pages sort to the tail. This is the fix for the model
that clobbered hand-set numbers on the flatten — numbers are now data, not a
derived sequence.
- series_service: drop the renumber-on-reorder/remove; order by page_number
NULLS LAST; new set_page_number(image_id, n|None); list_pages returns `gaps`
(one entry per missing-number run) + each pending group's parsed `start_page`;
set_cover renumbers below the current min; place_pending(image_ids, start_page)
numbers placed pages sequentially from the start (drop junk first → numbers
line up); add_post stamps the parsed start on staged pages.
- api/tags: POST /series/<id>/pages/number (set one page's number); /pending/
place takes start_page; removed /reorder.
- frontend: per-card editable number input; one gap block per gap with
drop-on-edge to assign the adjacent number (middle → type); append drop zone;
pending tray gets a "from page N" field + "Place from page N".
- tests reworked: sparse numbers + gaps, place-from-start, set-page-number route.
No migration; nothing destructive.

Add-from-post no longer appends straight into the run — it STAGES the post's
pages as pending (per-page status; page_number NULL), grouped by source post,
so the operator drops junk (text-free alts, bumpers) and places the keepers
into the sequence with clean series-global numbering.
- migration 0048: series_page.status ('placed' default | 'pending') + nullable
page_number.
- series_service: placed/pending split everywhere (list_pages returns the
placed run + a `pending` section grouped by source post; reorder/cover/
list_series operate on placed only); add_post stages pending; new
place_pending(image_ids, before_image_id=None) flips pending→placed spliced
before a page (or appended) and renumbers; junk removal reuses remove_images.
- api/tags: /add-post now returns staged count; new POST /series/<id>/pending/
place.
- frontend: PostSeriesMenu navigates to the series after staging; seriesManage
store surfaces `pending` + placePending; SeriesManageView gains a pending
tray (per-post groups, place-all / place-one / drop-junk).
- tests: pending staging, place (append + insert-before), ignore-already-
placed, drop-junk, route guard; updated add_post + match-accept expectations.
