The problem is that the Share system uses Perms objects without using 
the Perms API. The Perms system assumes that we have a strict 
hierarchical permissions structure with application permissions on the 
top level. Shares use arbitrary names for permssions that don't follow 
this scheme, e.g. Trean uses username:category:subcategory for share 
names, but "username" is of course no application.

This wasn't really clear to me until I analyzed this bug, and now that 
I know it, I don't feel really well with this fact. No better ideas at 
the moment, but I thought I should share it with you.

Jan.
