Currently, when a document is being shared, it appears in the "shared with me" section. But from that view, it is only possible to check the preview. What happens if there's no preview available? or what the user actually need is to access that document to print it. or if update permissions have been granted? The most common case would be that if somebody needed to share a document with a user, that user does not have access to the folder where it's stored, so navigating through documents and media cannot be the only option.

A mechanism has to be provided to:

• When the user has been granted with view permissions, to be able to download the document from "shared with me"
• When the user has been granted with update permissions, to be able to access a view (maybe detail view page?) where they can perform all the actions update permission allows.
