Decision 6 / REQ-010 promised the pickers survive a fail(400) "including
pre-selected persons/documents", but EventForm only seeded them from
event/initialPersons — never from the fail payload — and the payload carried
only bare ids, which can't rebuild a chip (chips need displayName/title). On
the use:enhance path the in-memory selection survived; on a no-JS full reload
the chips were silently dropped.
Now the save action re-fetches the selected persons/documents by id
(lookupSelections, non-ok swallowed like the prefill path) and returns full
chip data; EventForm seeds the pickers from form.persons/documents ahead of
the seeded event. Extract preservedFormFields() to DRY the four fail payloads;
validateEventForm now returns the error pair and the route owns the fail().
Component test pins the rehydration; the server spec now asserts the fail
payload carries labelled chips, not just ids.

Both curator-event loaders repeated the same null-user + hasWriteAll block.
hasWriteAll already returns false for an anonymous user, so a single
requireWriteAll(locals) helper covers both REQ-002 (null user → 403) and
REQ-003 (no WRITE_ALL → 403) without the redundant pre-check.

Load gates on hasWriteAll (null-user guard first, 403 error page) and seeds the
form from GET /api/timeline/events/{id}, failing closed with 404 on ANY non-ok
response so derived person-events (no UUID) and unknown ids never render a blank
create form. The save action PUTs with the optimistic-lock version (threaded via
a hidden input EventForm now emits), mapping 409 to the generic conflict message
without redirecting. The delete action DELETEs behind getConfirmService(),
returns fail(status) on a non-ok response (no redirect), and otherwise redirects
to the UUID-validated nav target. 8/8 server specs green; EventForm 6/6 green.
