I guess this refers to the default share id since the default shares
are identified as 'user at example.org'. But this is just the ID of the
share and is not linked to the 'owner' of the share (though the owner
of such a default share will usually be same as specified in the id).

As far as I can tell a shared resource should have the correct
permissions to give several users access to the resource. This is the
way shared resources work when using the Share/kolab.php driver. This
is not really linked to the user but rather to the permission system
supported by the Share-driver.

If somehow possible it would be great if this new resource framework
would stick to the interface provided by the Horde_Share
class. Currently the user can decide between both the DataTree- and
the Kolab-Share driver. I believe that the Kolab-driver has already
all the parts necessary to support shared resources and if there'd be
DataTree specific parts creeping back into the Share system I'd be
unhappy :)

Cheers,

Gunnar
