[STR Unresolved]

All,

This was an intention change to fix known security and functional issues
with such configurations.  This will not be "fixed" because reverting that
change will bring back the bugs it was causing, the most serious of which
would cause the creation of thousands of copies of the re-shared printer on
every client - still possible thanks to things like cups-browsed...

Johannes: STR #4738 added an error message rather than silently ignoring
the request to share - not the same issue, but related in that you weren't
being told why the share request was ignored.
