+/**
+ * The `reference` form control as a mounted document.
+ *
+ * `ui/form-controls.ts` is the flow — it owns the one read per collection, decides which of the
+ * three states the field is in, what each row is called and what a gesture commits — and this is
+ * the surface it draws into (`surfaces/reference-field.json`). Nothing here reads a schema, lists a
+ * directory or knows what a collection is: the scope is one already-classified control.
+ *
+ * **The host belongs to the caller**, as it does for `surfaces/schema-builder.ts`: a registered
+ * control is drawn into the empty `[part="control-host"]` (or `[part="cell-control-host"]`) that
+ * `surfaces/schema-form.json` announces for it, and a document clears the host it is given.
+ *
+ * **A mounted control has a second frame of its own, and that is what the conversion bought.** The
+ * template this replaced could only be redrawn by its HOST, so the picker's answer arrived through
+ * lit's `until` and the Retry button existed only where the host had passed a repaint hook — the
+ * frontmatter renderer passes none, so that field could name a failure it could not retry. The flow
+ * updates this surface directly, so the read landing and the retry are the same kind of event as
+ * every other one.
+ *
