@@ -17,6 +17,20 @@ interchangeable doors: `M-x` (keyboard), a radial caret menu (mouse), and the
 `:` command line (optional). Every feature registers its commands once and
 becomes reachable from all three. No action depends on an F-key or a chord.
 
+### Guiding principle: natural actions drive editing
+
+Each door suits a different kind of action, and placing an action in the wrong
+door breaks flow:
+
+- **Radial** is for actions that **complete in place** — cut, copy, paste,
+  comment, case changes, join lines. The gesture starts and ends at the cursor;
+  attention never leaves the text.
+- Actions that **open a panel demanding immediate focus elsewhere** (Find,
+  Replace, goto) do **not** belong in the radial. Being flung to a panel right
+  after a cursor gesture is jarring. These belong in the **command palette** or
+  a **keybind**, where the context switch is expected. The radial keeps a
+  "Command Palette…" slice as the escape hatch to them.

 ## Why a custom matcher is the keystone
 
 Kate's built-in command bar cannot be fixed in place:
