Feature request

We should pull all team-related data together and store it in a consolidated team-folder assigned to the team.

Directory structure

For team-related resources, a hidden directory called .appdata, .system, or .apps could be created in the team folder by default, where sub-folders for Collectives, Deck, etc. live in.
The rest of the team-folder could be used and managed by the team-members

Example

<Team>
	.appdata
		Collectives
		Deck
		Talk
	Userfolder 1
	Userfolder 2
	Textfile.odt

Use case

• At the moment, several Apps create their own directory structure inside the Nextcloud data folder. These folders get linked/mounted to the users home directory, leading to confusion and misuse of those.
• More tidy, clear directory structure
• Quota and permissions could more easily be controlled if data is in one place
