Since the default umask is not path dependent a separate /home/share/<user> directories need to be set up for this. (rwxrwxr-x meaning writeable for user:user and worldreadable) Renaming this bug.

(The default umask needs to be 002 with user private groups to facilitate secure and easy collabortation. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiUserManagement)
