Yes. Jeroen also wants to use it shared & private.

That's a good start.

You also want to defined behaviour for shared folders, though.

So the logic would likely be based upon admin rights for the folder. 
The only question is: If it is a folder that is not in your personal 
name space, and you have admin rights to it, do you write shared or 
private, or do you perhaps even give users an option for either?

So how do you plan to address this situation? We need such folders to 
end up sensibly in the folder structure, as well.

Do we need an annotation for the UID?
