Description

It's been gone for a while, but it is sorely missed. It's painful to have to open the share dialog just to copy the URL when my right click is right there

Research direction

Start by locating the context-menu share action and the existing share-dialog flow in the Element web client. Compare how the share control is presented with the requested link-like behavior; done means the context-menu action lets users copy the URL without opening the share dialog and matches the intended appearance.
