When using the Content view in the Admin Console in a team/business plan:
The buttons on the right sidebar which include Upload, New folder, and Show deleted files should include the ability to modify the current folder settings and sharing, just as can be done to the folder when looking at it from the parent folder's view.
"Move", "Delete", "Manage access", "Download", and "Change sync default" could be made available without having to go back to the parent folder.
