Description

Right now, the "Send" options are tucked inside two menu items and not so discoverable.

It would be great if there is a "Share/Send" as a dedicated action button right besides the other action items as shown by the cursor position here (bottom of the image):

The same is suggested for the image viewer action items in #320.

Research direction

Start by locating the gallery view's existing action items and the two menu entries that contain the "Send" options. Compare the requested placement with the related image-viewer suggestion in #320; done means Send/Share is available as its own action beside the other gallery actions.
