jcoffey-dev is traveling from Thursday 1 October through Sunday 4 October. Issues and pull requests are welcome, and will get an answer after that. Thanks for your patience.
A shared account refuses top-level folders, so an organize or full
delegate couldn't add anything to a locked account with no folders. A
delegate who may write now can, as the owner could; the reconcile after
the create grants it the new folder. Read delegates still can't (AL-6,
AL-7).
A delegate's token listed the locked account only for kinds of data it
held grants on, so one with no files (or no calendar) was refused to the
delegate outright: "You do not have access to account". The token now
lists the locked account for mail, calendars, contacts and files alike,
so an empty kind reads as empty. What the delegate may see or change is
still each container's grant (AL-7).
