Description

Hello,

Currently, only the owner/creator of a share is allowed to modify the options of it. Even if a user has all the permissions on that share, it cannot change them. It may be useful with collaborative folders to allow anyone with the right permissions to change the options, and not only the person who shared the item in the first place.

What do you think ?
