Steps to reproduce

  1. User A creates 'Root' folder and shares it with User B
  2. User A creates 'First level' folder inside of 'Root'
  3. User A checks Sharing tab for First level > Internal shares > Others with access
  4. User A sees share details: 'Added by A', 'Via "Root"', and action 'Unshare'

Clicking 'Unshare' will remove the share from 'Root' folder, although user might expect to exclude 'First level' from it instead

Expected behavior

Such fine-grained permissions look like groupfolders ACL and can be achieved by using this app, so no need to re-implement it fully for plain shares.

Maybe modify action label to 'Unshare {Root}' would be enough?
