 - **View:** Added the ability to override namespaced views (e.g., from modules/packages) by placing a matching file structure within the **app/Views/overrides** directory. See :ref:`Overriding Namespaced Views <views-overriding-namespaced-views>` for details.
 - **Toolbar:** Fixed an issue where the Debug Toolbar was incorrectly injected into responses generated by third-party libraries (e.g., Dompdf) that use native PHP headers instead of the framework's Response object.
