Alright, I see this one. Just to confirm:
      * The emblem issue only happens when attempting to share
        Documents, but not for other random folders (I can reproduce
        this but I can't figure out what's going on)
      * The "write" option appearing disabled but actually enabled is a
        bug in nautilus-share (I have spotted the faulty code and will
        push a patch for this)
      * I still can't reproduce the issue where Properties > Share is
        disabled upon restarting.
