Inconsistent disabled state across buttons #31

Description

@stultus

Problem

The left sidebar tab buttons (Scenes / Story) and several toolbar buttons have no
distinct disabled state. When a state actually blocks interaction (e.g. Story tab with
no content yet, or toolbar buttons during an export), the button still looks active,
which makes failures feel like bugs.

Observed

  • Buttons rely on hover state for feedback; without hover they look identical whether
    they're enabled or disabled.
  • There's no aria-disabled / disabled convention applied consistently.

Proposed

  • Add a shared .btn--disabled style (reduced opacity, cursor: not-allowed, no hover
    background change).
  • Audit every button in: TitleBar.svelte, LeftPanel.svelte, Editor.svelte status
    bar, and export modal action row.
  • Apply disabled attribute + the style consistently.

Acceptance

  • Every button across the app has a visibly distinct disabled state.
  • Disabled buttons don't show a hover background.
  • Screen readers announce disabled state.
