I have a vague recollection that sharing was planned to be implemented 
using VNC for activities that do not implement their own sharing.

If you remove the share button completely, then that screen real estate 
may be used by something else and it will be hard to reclaim it.

I also have a vague recollection about the important buttons (like 
"stop") being managed by sugar (broadly defined) and not by the activity 
using some kind of GtkPlug/GtkSocket type of set up to support the 
security model. I don't think that got implemented though.
