Field report: a send sat 'in mempool' for two days while the network had never seen it (Tor down at send time defeats both the multi-broadcast and the embedded daemon's exclusive --tx-proxy relay), locking the change. Three additive changes, all strictly local (no txid is ever queried against an external service): - onMultiBroadcast now counts relay responses; if no node accepted the broadcast within 45s the user is told immediately and offered the existing rebroadcast path, instead of silence. - A periodic local history scan warns once per outgoing tx that has been pending for more than 25 minutes, again offering rebroadcast (which already reconnects to a fresh node first). - On DaemonManager::synced, still-pending outgoing txs are re-announced from the wallet's own tx cache; a restarted embedded node's pool has forgotten them.
