Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Tables allow sharing with normal groups but not with the virtual Guests group created by guests_app

Describe the solution you'd like

Allow sharing user/group list to display guests group and guests users (users that are only in guest group). A plus would be using the guests app as the file sharing do it. It create a gest account from a mail adress.

Thanks for this wonderfull app :-)

Research direction

Start by tracing how Tables builds its user and group sharing list, then compare that flow with the guests_app sharing behavior described in the issue. The work is done when the virtual Guests group and users belonging only to it can be selected for table sharing; guest-account creation from an email is an additional possibility, not a defined requirement.
