Description
### Your use case
#### What would you like to do?
* Add a swipe down gesture to go home/go up a space
* Tapping the space name should give you navigation options _and_ space options
#### Why would you like to do it?
* I don't use spaces that often, but when I do I want to navigate home faster
* It's not immediately apparent that I'm looking at a filtered list when I'm in a space
#### How would you like to achieve it?
* Give the user a hint that they can go up a space with an up arrow or something next to eh the space title
### Have you considered any alternatives?
_No response_
### Additional context
Do we anticipate that users will spend most of their time in the "home" view or in a specific space view?
Either way you answer to that question, you'll need to provide a quick way to get home _or_ move from space to space. Current method always require two taps in a less than accessible corner of the screen. (especially for left handed people) One large phone it it difficult to reach the FAB and accompanying buttons, hence why most app don't rely on it for navigation, instead relying on side menu or swiping.
### Are you willing to provide a PR?
