The .space folder is synced and can be changed

[jnweiger]

Seen with android 1.0.0 and opencloud server 3.7.0

• admin creates a space Mountain
• admin adds user mary as a read/write space member.
• admin adds a description to space Mountain
• mary connects to the server via android app.
• mary clicks on spaces, and enters the space Mountain
• mary sees a .space folder. BAD
• mary can upload files there, BAD
• mary can remove the Readme.md file from the .space folder. BAD
• admin checks the space. The description text is gone. BAD
• strangely, a space icon or image remains active, even when the .space/image.png is removed. OKish

Expected behaviour:

• .space is special and cannot be messed with by random space members.
• consistency with web UI: there, only space managers can change the description.

@tbsbdr can you maybe make a comment on that here please?

Image as spacemetadata should placed somewhere else ( not top ) - needs discussion about

we should get rid of the .space folder and just render the README.md files at the top on every folder.

Yes PLEASE 👍 Would be so much more straightforward in terms of UX and also DX.
