Sharing one's Source Box

Someone brought up a question: can she share her Source Box with her son? As far as I know, the answer is "no, not really" -- he can find a source that she has attached and copy it to his own box, but that disconnects it from the group, and doesn't work unless he can find it on a profile.

It'd be nice if one could somehow send citations from one's source box to another user, either singly or in batches. This would allow someone else to finish a group attachment (for example, a long and complicated funeral notice), and could allow for easier sharing of uploaded documents.

    Upvoting. This would be a great enhancement of the Source Box.
