Infrastructure notes & breaking changes:

• password list items flicker while being deleted
• when you share a note back and forth, if one of the recipients “Saves a Copy” of the note, then shares it – the other is unable to save.
• Android – when you are logged into other devices and you read messages, Android is the only device that does not clear the badges on the Home Screen. (This is an android limitation – no built-in badging system. we would need custom infrastructure to resolve)
• hidden workspace DMs ae not searchable unless there are other active searchable workspaces
• notes history table is not recording data (NOTED AS CRITICAL; needs definition -> this was just never implemented)
• iOS offline vault file upload may not generate a thumbnail until app is hard-closed and reopened
• scroll is locked when editing a newly saved shared passwor
