As a Nextcloud user I want to transfer my own files to another user. If my own files are located on an external storage, Nextcloud forbids the operation.
This was possible already until https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/32149.
Describe the solution you'd like
Allow the move operation (again), at least when the storage/data is owned by the user. If storage is owned by the system (group folders, identical external storage mounted for a group of people) do not allow moving data.
