+    **v1.5.6 — Upstream-Sync Filter-Notification-Polish (2026-05-22)**
+
+    A backlog-sync cycle: filter and notification items plus polish.
+    Half two of a two-part backlog cleanup pass.
+
+    User-visible:
+
+    - Tabs can carry an optional regular-expression filter applied on
+      top of the channel filter, so a tab can collect only messages
+      that contain a given keyword. Set it in the tab settings.
+    - Before sending a message that contains plugin-only symbols
+      (which other players may see as empty boxes), HellionChat now
+      shows a warning; press Enter again to send anyway. Toggle in
+      Settings -> Chat.
+    - Sender names can be reformatted in the chat log: choose when the
+      home world is appended and whether the full name, first name
+      only, or initials are shown. Settings -> Chat.
+    - The main chat window now has a separate opacity value for when
+      it is not focused, so it can fade back while you play.
+    - The three bundled custom notification sounds gained a volume
+      slider in Settings -> General.
+
+    Schema bumped to v19 (additive fields only, no data migration).
+
+    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

-    **v1.5.2 — First-Run Wizard Rework (2026-05-18)**
-
-    UX patch. The first-run wizard becomes a four-step flow with a
-    new Roleplay privacy profile and a power-settings step that
-    surfaces previously-hidden defaults. Existing v1.5.1 users see
-    the new wizard once on first v1.5.2 boot.
-
-    What changes user-visible:
-
-    - Wizard navigation: Welcome → Privacy profile → Power settings
-      → Done. Forge-Bronze pagination dots, dedicated stage for the
-      power settings so they are no longer buried in Settings.
-    - Fourth privacy profile "Roleplay": Privacy-First plus Say and
-      both emote types, with a 30-day window for Say and a 90-day
-      window for emotes. Shout, Yell and Novice Network stay out.
-    - Privacy picker becomes a 2x2 grid. Casual stays the
-      recommended option with a ★ marker.
-    - Power-settings step covers Load Previous Session, Filter
-      Include Previous Sessions, Auto-Tell-Tabs History Preload,
-      Compact Density, Prettier Timestamps and a built-in theme
-      picker. All six map to existing Configuration fields — no new
-      settings introduced.
-    - Staged commit: the wizard only writes to Config on the Finish
-      step. Decide-later or X-close at any point leaves the existing
-      config untouched.
-    - Inline test hint on the done step: "type /tell <Player Name>
-      into chat" surfaces the auto-tell-tab spawn mechanism.
-    - Window starts at 720x480 (was 900x560) and can shrink to
-      600x400; Step 1 keeps the fox banner in a folded TreeNode so
-      the onboarding copy stays primary.
-    - Existing users get the new wizard surfaced once on first boot
-      after the update via the new WizardLastShownVersion config
-      field. Future cycles bump the constant only when the wizard
-      itself changes shape.
-
-    Under the hood:
-
-    - WizardStateSmokeStep added to /xlperf alongside the FontManager
-      and ThemeSwitch self-tests.
-    - Twelve new pure-helper xUnit Facts in the Build Suite cover
-      all four privacy profile sets and their retention overrides.
-
-    Migration v17 stays (no schema bump). The Configuration grows
-    one optional string field (WizardLastShownVersion) which
-    defaults to empty for legacy users.
-
-    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
