Decision
Use one structured, experimental right-panel API because the real plugin cases share host-owned chrome and lifecycle: custom navigation views, Browser tabs, and Terminal tabs beside a plugin nav page. Keep thread panels separate because their ownership and lifecycle are thread-scoped rather than nav-page-scoped.
API
navPanel.experimental_rightPanelregisters plugin views, an optional pinneddefaultViewId, and enabled host tools (browser,terminal){ subPath, params }and choosepaddedorflushlayoutuseBbNavigate().experimental_openRightPanel(...)opens a registered view, Browser URL, or Terminal target and returnsfalsefor invalid or unavailable requestsImplementation
Verification
This upstream-origin PR supersedes fork-origin #1497 without folding any plugin implementation into BB.
