Research direction

Start by reproducing the four-step sharing and unsharing sequence with the listed Desktop Client, Server, and notify_push versions. Trace how the unshare notification reaches user2 without relying on a polling event. Done means the file is deleted from user2's desktop immediately after user1 unshares it.
