Description

mentioned in https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/16828#issuecomment-553272279, but should be discussed separately:

  • share a file with user A
  • user A rejects it
  • you do not get a notification / info about it
  • it is just like you never shared to the user
    --> maybe add a notification like "user A rejected your share"
