The panel was anchored to the right edge of the view, which is nowhere near
whatever the player just clicked. It now stands beside the selection: right of
it where it fits, otherwise left, otherwise the roomier side pushed inside the
view -- the one case where it covers part of what it describes.
Nothing told the panel where the selection was. The selection events carry ids
only, and the mode that separates a fresh selection from an expanded one is
consumed inside SelectionController before they are built, so the view now
publishes the selection's screen bounds itself, immediately before selecting and
only when the selection is starting. Freezing that rectangle is what holds the
panel still: it does not chase a scrolling view, a ship flying off, or a
selection being added to. Only the panel's own size still moves it, and even
then it keeps its side and the edge facing the selection.
The rectangles come from what the renderer was already computing for the
selection outlines, now shared rather than duplicated.
