Found by design-dev, the same class as the wipe dialog he had just fixed on the
Desk, and reported across the fence rather than kept.
A board row's description and URL are written by any of seventeen agent handles
and were pasted RAW into the `confirm()` the operator reads before approving a
delete. A bidi override (U+202E) or a newline in either re-orders or hides what
he is consenting to, so the row shown is not the row removed.
Escaping does nothing here and that is the trap: autoescape protects the PAGE,
but `confirm` renders a plain string, so the markup defence everyone reaches for
first is irrelevant to the surface that actually carries the decision.
Control and bidi formatting characters now render as U+FFFD — visibly mangled,
never silently re-ordered — through the same helper shape design-dev used, so
the two dialogs cannot drift apart.
Both arguments go through it, and the mutation row defeats exactly that: taking
the raw description back for one of the two turns the test red. 763 green.
