Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported case: add a file directly to a user's filesystem outside Nextcloud, then check the Activity stream and mail notifications. Trace how direct filesystem changes are detected and recorded; done means the created-file event appears in both places, as it already does for changes made inside Nextcloud.
