Scenario
- Sync a folder.
- Quit Drive.
- Rename locally and remotely the folder with different names.
- Start Drive.
- A conflict is detected and an action is required from the user.
On the conflicts/errors window, there are 2 links to open the local folder/folder and the remote document; and a button to choose one or the other to overwrite the local or remote doc).
The second link, "Open remote", will never worked with folerish documents as it is using Direct Edit to open it.
Expected Behavior
Maybe "Open remote" should only open the browser at the document page instead of relying on Direct Edit.
For non-folderish documents, if may not be the good thing to open the file locally as it will be downloaded first; and for large files, this may be very bad. Moreover, we do not know if the user can actually open that file, so a potential problematic/large file will be downloaded but then the OS will fail to open it.
If the user wants to open it with Direct Edit, one will be able to leverage the Direct Edit button from Web-UI: clearer concerns and potential saving of (large) resources.
