+<%#
+  Rich reply editor (shared component) — progressive enhancement.
+
+  Renders a plain <textarea name="text"> form that works without JS; the shared
+  /assets/js/reply-editor.js upgrades it to a rich contenteditable with a small
+  toolbar, a language select and (on ≤700px) a full-screen compose overlay,
+  which is the right pattern on mobile. On submit the JS fills the hidden
+  `content` field with the editor HTML and `text` with a plain-text fallback;
+  the server prefers `content` and sanitizes it (fedi-reply / authorize_interaction).
+
+  Locals:
+    action        POST target (required)
+    hiddenFields  [{ name, value }] extra hidden inputs (optional)
+    placeholder   textarea/editor placeholder (required)
+    submitLabel   submit button label (required)
+    rows          textarea rows for the no-JS fallback (default 3)
+    defaultLang   preselected reply language (default: UI lang)
