Research direction
Open developer_manual/digging_deeper/repair.rst and read the existing uninstall repair-step section first. Add the requested checklist covering config values, user preferences, background jobs, appdata files, and optional database tables, then add the downgrade note about migrations and data. Done means both topics are clearly documented in that file and the checklist matches the app guidelines.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
developer_manual/digging_deeper/repair.rst explains the uninstall repair step, but not what an app should actually clean up, and the app guidelines require it.
- Add a short checklist of what to remove on uninstall: app config values, user preferences, background jobs, appdata files, and (if wanted) database tables.
- Add a note on downgrades: what happens to migrations and data when an older app version is installed.
