Sorry, I overlooked that. Looked mostly after a new queue correctly set 
up and the dialogs having all their buttons.

This we really cannot drop. It must be easily possible for a user to do:

- Activate printer sharing in general (equivalent of "cupsctl 
--share-printers")

- Share/unshare individual printers (add menu entry to gear menu of 
printer entry, or button in Printer Details dialog).

If this is not possible, we would need to step back to 
system-config-printer.
