Description

My use case:
I upload all pictures made on my smart phone to nextcloud automatically and move them to the app folder locally. This allows me view the pictures in the nextcloud app immediately without downloading them before.

No I like to sort through my pictures when commuting, deleting the unnecessary ones. Using the gallery app on the phone, I would only delete the local pictures, therefor I use the nextcloud app, but deleting (or moving) pictures is quite some taps away.
It works as expected, I do have my pictures deleted on the NC instance and locally, but I would like to have a much faster way of handling this.

First thing would be, instead of the 3-dots on the right top corner, this actions can be placed directly on the bottom of the screen. More or less like the Simple Gallery is doing it (https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Gallery) this would allow me to delete or move or even share pictures (or perhaps other files as well) quite easily.

The next thing, which would be great, is to have to skip the "delete confirmation" dialog for this session (once again like simple gallery).

After deleting, move on to the next picture.

Basically this would allow me to have my pictures properly sorted and synced between the device I was shooting it (or synced it to).

I am sure others would benefit from this as well, just thinking about my parents, they delete pictures locally, but this is not reflected on the NC instance right now, but with this process I could tell the, to do so within the nextcloud app quite easily.
