Research direction

Use the listed reproduction steps to inspect where the Transfer Ownership option is presented for a user with no personal storage quota. Confirm the current quota condition and trace the ownership-transfer entry point. Done means the option is hidden when the target user lacks sufficient quota, while remaining available when the transfer can be executed.
