+ * Regression test for the dashboard "Conference" column overflowing into
+ * the "Status" column.
+ *
+ * Root cause: `.cell-conf` is a CSS grid item with the default
+ * `min-width: auto`, so an unbreakable long string (e.g. a conference URL)
+ * forces the grid track wider than its `minmax(140px, 1fr)` track size,
+ * visually bleeding into the next cell instead of being clipped.
