Description
Feature request
User type: public user
User level: intermediate
Description
The scenario would look like this:
- Alice shares a password to Bob and gives to Bob the right to reshare to someone else
- Bob accepts the share and opens the share interface
- Bob shares the password to Charly
- Alice opens the sharing interface and sees that the password has been shared
Benefit / value
In a company, not only the password owner can share the password but also the people they grant the right to reshare.
Risk / caveats
Loosing control of the share chain (who shared the password I shared to someone...)
For that, I would probably suggest to view who shared the password with whom in the revision panel.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing share interface and revision panel mentioned in the issue, then trace how accepted shares and reshare permissions are represented. Define how Alice can grant Bob reshare access and how the Alice-to-Bob-to-Charly chain is displayed. Done means the described workflow works and the full sharing chain remains visible.
