We would lose the tight integration with the other groupware apps, the  
permissions interface is only available to admins, and we need the  
hierarchical data that's stored in the share system along with the  
perms.

What we decided on is to eventually (attempt to) move the gallery  
_data_ out of the DT/Share....keeping the shares for the hierarchical  
relationships and permissions for now.  Eventually either Shares will  
move out of the DT, or we will try a different share architecture.
