Research direction

Reproduce the failed rename in a browser using Nextcloud 33.0.5 with e2ee app 2.1.1, then trace the end-to-end-encrypted folder rename flow in this repository. Done means either encrypted folders can be renamed successfully or the rename control is hidden, matching the selected option.
