The store keeps a Menu Set's state in the directory layout (drafts/ versus published/) and its metadata in a manifest, with publishing as a single directory rename. Editing is allowed on Drafts only, so a published menu can never change under a customer. Stages 2 and 3 of docs/plan.md, with tests.

Menu Publishing
Publishing the customer-facing menus of several brewery-restaurant Sites. A Site serves photographed pages of its printed menus, grouped into Sections and published as Menu Sets.
