Research direction

Reproduce the user-sharing search on Nextcloud 33.0.3.2 with end-to-end encryption app 2.1.1, comparing searches by display name and username. Trace the sharing search entry point to identify why usernames are omitted; done means both display names and usernames find the intended users.
