OK, I gotta hand it to CoPilot.

Tried to refactor Main.qml into separate components without any alteration of the appearance or functionality.
In the distance, sirens.
Maybe that joke is obscure tumblore and I should explain.

I just looked into what it costs to sell games and stuff on Itch.io, and creators can set their own amount to give to Itch.io, instead of the flat 30 that Steam and all the app stores take. That's nice. That's really nice. From now on, if I can buy a game there instead of Steam, I'm doing that, because I never feel great about so much of the money not going to the creator.

Looks exactly the same, but now most of the QML types are in their own files, Main.qml is much smaller, and we have 0 qmllint complaints. Most of this evening has been spent trying to reason out what recommendation `qmllint` is making and why. C++ and Qt docs are always so unopinionated. I need these folks to take a stand. If it's worth spitting out a warning in qmllint, it's worth being clear about what the user should do.
My little man drawing skills keep getting worse, somehow.

C64 folks, is it reasonable to think in terms of "sets of eight sprites?" I know you can have more or less, and I know one might more be thinking of sets of three or four for animations...but, for some reason, I think this layout kind of makes sense to me.
I'm thinking animation will be visualized by selecting two or more sprites from the eight shown, and then I'll bring back the preview box as an animation preview.

Spritemate handles it like this. You click to add more sprites to work with, and that's also pretty intuitive and reasonable. No animation support, though.

OK, animation with overlay sprites is confusing. It seems like it makes sense to group the overlay with the sprite it overlays...so you can increment a, umm, pointer or whatever you call it in assembly, and have the offset remain the same always. So, each frame in an animation displays two sprites adjacent to each other in memory.
But, what if the overlay is re-used? If I have two different little guys who have the same outline, but different multicolor, I can no longer count on adjacency.
