Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing how Xreader exposes document actions and how LibreOffice or Nemo performs “Send by email”; define done as an in-application email-send action that works for opened PDFs without first saving and locating them manually.

Description

 * Xreader version 2.4.4
 * Distribution - Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon

I really miss the function "Send by email..." in the xreader functionallity. For example when i click a doc|odt|ods file on any website and it opened by the libreoffice automatically i can send the file to other person through libreoffice menu item "File/Send by email" without saving the file to a disk storage. When i click any pdf file and it opened by the xreader automatically i often need the same item in the xreader's menu cause now to send the file i have to save it to a disk, start the nemo, find the file and only then to send it through the nemo context menu item "Send by email".

Is it really possible to add this function to the xreader?
