 Feedback from educators in an activity workshop this morning, who have
 worked with students and XOs in the past (but haven't worked with terribly
 many of them at once) :

 : Core activity features should always show up in the same place in an
 activity... ==> being able to launch without the core "activity-tab"
 buttons available is repeatedly confusing.

 : Teachers always want to share files.  They tend to learn how to use USB
 keys to share things, which takes many extra steps.  Eric Burns' proposal
 for publication and journal sharing was a way around this, and he was
 getting feedback recently from Tomeu; we should encourage this more
 actively.

 : Relatedly:   It should be possible to say "Share my entire activity
 history" when sharing with someone.  Otherwise there is no way to
 effectively share earlier work with a new person who joins an activity.
