Sylpheed RE agent 688851122d docs/re: SOLVED — the paint order is the screen object's child array at +0x30
The screen object holds a SECOND list of its elements, a reordering built at load
time, and that list is the paint order. It is 24 pointers at +0x30, each the
+0x00 field of one of the 48-byte element records, so both arrays hold the same
objects in different orders.

Checked against the draw capture rather than asserted: the seven elements the
capture can name sit at child slots 0, 6, 7, 13, 16, 17, 22 — strictly ascending,
in exactly the captured submission order. It also resolves the one sub-order no
static field could explain, the pair that decodes to the same 1133x280: slot 6 is
element 20 and slot 7 is element 19, so they paint 20-then-19, DESCENDING in
declaration terms. And the kind=0x4 repeat instances sit immediately after their
template, where the declaration table interleaves them.

Stated as unsolved, because the port cannot read a runtime array: deriving this
order from the bundle. The order is clearly structured rather than arbitrary —
elements sharing a sprite are adjacent and the full-screen effects lead — so it
is worth attacking, but it is not attacked here.
