Description

Subset of https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/30484

@nimishavijay I find the . (dot) to share shortcut very odd. Don't we have better alternatives? :)
Someone suggested @ for sharing, what do you think of that ?

/me stares at german keyboard

Not sure if AltGr+Q is viable… Do we actually need to make different shortcuts for different languages?

Research direction

Done means an agreed keyboard shortcut is implemented for the Files share action and verified against the keyboard-layout concerns raised in the discussion.
