Reduce how identifiable a panel is from its unauthenticated surface, without
losing the brand once you're inside.
- Public vs interior title: new `public_title` setting (default "Control
Panel") drives the sign-in/register/setup headings and the browser tab
before login (and the static first-paint <title>); `panel_title`
(ServerKit) still names the tab once signed in. PageTitleUpdater picks by
route. Both are exposed pre-auth on /auth/setup-status and editable in the
admin Site Settings → Panel Appearance card.
- Per-install favicon tint (install.sh randomize_favicon): the favicon is a
plain-text SVG, so each install recolors the tile to one of a curated set of
legible colors via a string replace — same mark, different color, so a
favicon-hash comparison across installs differs. No image tooling required;
if the step can't run, the shipped default color stays. Runs on both fresh
and release installs; existing installs are untouched.
Defense-in-depth / obscurity only — real protection is access control + auth.
Verified: eslint 0 errors, backend py_compile ok, install.sh `bash -n` ok,
favicon sed recolor confirmed.
