+// Express Orders — multi-row Part cell widget (2026-05-26, revised 2026-05-27)
 //
-// Replaces the standard Many2One renderer for `part_catalog_id` in
-// the Express Orders line list. Shows three stacked rows in ONE
-// cell, mirroring the brainstorm mockup:
-//
-//   Row 1: Part # / Revision  (bold; part # is the active picker)
-//   Row 2: Part description    (italic, muted)
-//   Row 3: Serial #(s)         (small grey, joined by ", ")
-//                              + small "+ bulk" button
-//
-// Pre-fetched fields used (read off the line record, no RPC needed):
-//   - part_catalog_id (M2O, the actual picker)
-//   - part_number_display (related Char from part.part_number)
-//   - part_revision_display (related Char from part.revision)
-//   - part_name_display (related Char from part.name)
-//   - serial_ids (M2M list)
-//
-// Bulk button calls action_open_serial_bulk_add on the line which
-// opens the existing fp.serial.bulk.add.wizard.
+// Row 1: Many2OneField picker (shows part_catalog_id.display_name —
+//        which is just the part_number when fp_express_part_picker
+//        context flag is set).
+// Row 2: editable input bound to part_name_editable (writable compute
+//        with inverse that writes part.name on the linked catalog
+//        record — see fp_direct_order_line.py).
+// Row 3: editable input bound to serials_text (parses comma-separated
+//        names, finds-or-creates fp.serial records, updates the line's
+//        serial_ids M2M) + small "+ bulk" button that opens the existing
+//        fp.serial.bulk.add.wizard for paste-list / range-fill entry.
