Reentering an existing submenu destroys deeper open state · case 01

Reentering an existing submenu destroys deeper open state.

ROOT CAUSE

The cascade-ownership model applies `p['chain'][:p['depth']]+[p['item']]` at its same-owner operation instead of the stipulated transformation.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply `p['chain'] if p['chain'][p['depth']]==p['item'] else p['chain'][:p['depth']]+[p['item']]` at same-owner.

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair `p['chain'][:p['depth']+1]` still violates the same-owner oracle.

Case contract

An opened cascade is an ordered branch; replacing a depth discards deeper descendants.

Why this case matters

Cascading and context menus require coherent command and session state as content changes.

Verification & scope

Offline supplied-valid-payload model; excludes DOM, keyboard, focus, selection, announcements and browser conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
