Measured against a live Claude pane: an Ink TUI paints by ROW and emits
almost no newlines, so dropping cursor-position sequences collapsed a whole
screen into one unreadable line, and a tail cut mid-sequence printed the
remains of it (";1H") as text. Now a jump to column 1 starts a display line,
a jump inside a row moves the write position (capped, since a stream may
address a column no terminal has), and a severed CSI head is dropped before
parsing.
The preview is readable against a real session as a result: tool calls, the
working line and the composer all land where they belong.
Also drop the repeated session name from a search row, whose snippet opens
with the name the row already shows in its first column.

The preview pane shows a session's raw terminal stream, so it needs the tail
reconstructed rather than emulated: SGR survives, cursor steering and OSC do
not, and a carriage return returns to column 0 so a spinner that repaints its
line 200 times contributes one line instead of 200.
Widths count East Asian Wide characters as two columns, which the clip and pad
helpers rely on to never cut a wide character, a code point or an escape
sequence in half.
