+    // The admin apps run headless inside this shell, which installs a minimal
+    // fake `sap.ushell.Container` (so FE thinks it is inside a launchpad and
+    // renders no standalone shell chrome of its own). A side effect of that FLP
+    // detection is that FE builds a NavigationService WITHOUT
+    // `storeInnerAppStateAsync` — it expects the (real) launchpad to persist
+    // inner-app state. Our fake container does not, so the first list-row click
+    // throws `i.storeInnerAppStateAsync is not a function` and navigation to the
+    // ObjectPage silently fails (this is why channel/tag rows "couldn't open the
+    // Object page"). Enhancing the fake CrossApplicationNavigation with app-state
+    // factory methods does NOT help — FE fixes the service shape purely on
+    // ushell.Container presence, before those methods are consulted.
+    //
+    // Fix: after each route match, wrap `getNavigationService()` on every headless
+    // admin FE component so the returned service always carries a working
+    // in-memory `storeInnerAppStateAsync` (and, defensively, `replaceInnerAppStateKey`).
