gator 29a054f8c8 One stage at a time instead of the whole pipeline at once
The page showed the script, every shot's directing controls, your pictures,
filming, the joins and the cut simultaneously. That is four different jobs on
one screen, and the first of them - reading the words and getting them right -
is the one that matters most and was the easiest to skip past.

It is now four stages with a stepper: the words, the layout, filming, the cut.
Each shows only what belongs to it, and you can step back to look at an earlier
one at any time.

This also fixes something that was simply wrong: approving the script used to
hide every shot control, so the setting, camera and cutaways became uneditable
at exactly the moment you were meant to be arranging them. Directing now lives
in its own stage, after the words are settled and before anything is filmed.
