Inline comments:
In `@browser/ui/data-panel.md`:
- Line 34: Remove the parenthetical "(Exact editing affordances depend on the
table component implementation.)" from the Data Panel docs and either replace it
with a concise list of the actual table editing operations exposed to users
(e.g., "Add property", "Delete property", "Edit value inline") or delete the
sentence entirely so no internal implementation uncertainty is presented to end
users; update the surrounding text in browser/ui/data-panel.md to read smoothly
after removing or replacing that parenthetical.

In `@browser/ui/metadata-view.md`:
- Line 16: Replace the vague warning line "Warning: profiling can be intrusive
depending on the database behavior." with a specific description of user-visible
effects: mention increased query latency, higher CPU/memory/disk I/O, potential
table locks or contention, larger logs or storage usage, and that profiling may
alter timing making performance measurements non-representative; also add a
short recommendation when to enable profiling (e.g., use only for diagnostics or
on non-production/low-traffic instances). Locate and update the warning text in
metadata-view.md where that exact sentence appears.

In `@browser/ui/query-editor.md`:
- Around line 19-22: Clarify the prerequisite for each arrow key in the "Query
history navigation (keyboard)" section: state that Up arrow navigates backward
through query history only when the cursor is on the first line, and Down arrow
navigates forward only when the cursor is on the last line; update the two
bullet lines under "When your cursor is on the first line or last line of the
editor:" (or replace that header) so each bullet explicitly ties the arrow
direction to its specific cursor-line condition.

In `@browser/ui/table-view.md`:
- Around line 12-13: The text uses the technical term graph.Data and a filename
placeholder <graph> that may confuse users; update phrasing to say "the Table
tab is enabled when tabular results are present" (replace graph.Data) and
clarify the filename placeholder is the graph's ID or name (state which one is
used) with a concrete example like "filename: results_sales-2024.csv" or
"results_graph-1234.csv" so readers see the format; apply the same clarification
to the other occurrence referenced (the lines around 27-28) and update any
literal `<graph>` occurrences to the clarified placeholder and example.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Remove or replace the implementation note — it's not end-user documentation.

This parenthetical reads as an internal placeholder and leaks implementation uncertainty into user-facing docs. Either replace it with the actual editing operations the table exposes (e.g., add property, delete property, edit value inline) or remove the sentence entirely.

✏️ Suggested replacement

Clarify what "intrusive" means for end users.

The warning is vague. End users need to know how profiling affects them.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Clarify per-direction conditions for history keyboard navigation.

The section introduces "first line or last line" as a single prerequisite for both arrows, which is ambiguous. In practice, Up triggers on the first line and Down triggers on the last line — they are distinct conditions.

✏️ Suggested wording
-When your cursor is on the **first line** or **last line** of the editor:
-- **Up arrow**: navigate backward through query history
-- **Down arrow**: navigate forward through query history

Clarify user-facing terminology for graph.Data and filename placeholder.

Readers may not know what graph.Data refers to, and <graph> could be interpreted as a literal string. Consider wording as “tabular results are present” and specify whether the filename uses graph ID or name (and show an example with a real-ish value).

Also applies to: 27-28
