Description
Testing web UI of 10.2.1RC3
User admin shares folder AdminPhotos with user jwtest with share, create, delete permissions, but without change permission:

User jwtest does not see a rename button on files within AdminPhotos (no change permisision, ok). But user jwtest has a rename button on subfolders within AdminPhotos.

Actually trying a rename results in an error then.
This is inconsistent. Either always have the rename button and show errors, or never have the rename button.

Research direction
Reproduce the web UI case with share, create, and delete permissions but without change permission, then trace where the rename button is shown for files versus subfolders. Compare the button’s visibility with the rename request’s permission handling; done means subfolders no longer expose an unusable rename action and the behavior is covered consistently.
