On a desktop window of modest width (the Tauri shell's 1100px default, at the default text size) the nick column kept its full 12ch while the text had room to spare, so short nicks stood off from their time across a band of empty space. Below the width where the widest time column, the full nick column and 50 characters of text fit, the column starts at its 9ch floor instead; a longer nick takes the ellipsis sooner. The floor, and with it the user-list and inline-flow thresholds, are unchanged. message-gutter.mjs passes; at 1100x760 the column goes from 170 to 132px.

On a desktop window of modest width, such as the Tauri shell's default 1100px at the default text size, the nick column kept its full 12ch while the text still had room. Short nicks are right-aligned, so they stood well apart from their timestamps with a band of empty space in between.

#chat: once the widest time column (10.5ch), the full nick column (12ch) and 50 characters of text no longer fit in the pane, the nick column starts at its 9ch floor instead of 12ch.Testing
