For your second question boils down to "item sharing" versus "vault sharing".

Item sharing is more flexible than vault sharing, but it requires more work to see who has access to what. It also involves many more public key operations. And it makes things more complicated in finding efficient ways of actually getting things to the right individuals.

But as things develop we may switch to something more in line with what you suggest.

Yes, it definitely has cons and introduces complexity. But maybe if a proper REST API is built around the concept it can reduce some of the complexity at the surface.

The client will still have to encrypt for every user they need to give the password to and I don't know how expensive can this be in a large team but my assumption here is that people read passwords a lot more than write/edit them.
