`src=""` was stored verbatim, so the region carried `texture: Some("")`, the resolve asked
the size probe for a nameless file and the renderer searched the patch chain for one and
logged `texture miss: ''` — a defect-shaped warning that can name neither a file nor an
asker. `""` clears on every other texture setter here, as the reference's path arm treats
it like nil (`0x770200`), and `a9ed091eb` closed the three that had stored one; this was
the last route in the UI that still could.
Found by sweeping the rest rather than by a new sighting, and two of the leads this list
carried are now dead: the `CursorPayload` arm it called most likely is unreachable in a
live session (`extract/mod.rs:1020` guards the whole block with `if capture.is_some()`),
and `PortraitSource::File` cannot be empty — `temporary_portrait` always returns a `.blp`.
The M2 and WMO sides filter at parse, and `texture_url("")` would read `'.blp'` rather than
`''`, so the warning's own text says the UI sprite path is where it came from.
Whether this closes the one line in grom's log is unproven: it sat in `benilla-2.log` at
+20.717s, that run may predate `a9ed091eb`, and three measurement launches have since
rotated his logs out. The test is the next sighting: with the filter removed it reports
`texture: Some("")`, and in the fixture the nameless path also reserved the probe's 48 px
of flow under the image — in game the probe answers nothing for a miss, so only the chain
search and the warning were real.
