Title:
  add out of the box file sharing support (samba) for Ubuntu with GUI

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  File sharing between Ubuntu and  Windows PCs is a bit of a struggle.
  One cannot get it up and running without searching online for a
  solution. Also there is always a bit of commandline involved in the
  process.

  It would be better, if the required GUI and the dependencies are
  installed by default for Ubuntu . Even if  the dependencies are not
  involved, during setup of file share, the system should prompt for the
  required dependencies which can be installed from the Ubuntu Software
  Center.
