Bookstack: Add ability to share elements with 'unique' URL
Desired Feature:
It would be great to have a way to share single books/chapters/pages with a single party without requiring them to have an account. I realize it is possible to just make an element available to the public but this is not a great solution if I want to share content with multiple parties. Let鈥榮 say I want to share book A with person X and book B with person Y. I don鈥榯 think there is a way to do this without sharing books A and B with X and Y by making both books publicly available.
What I am thinking about is an obscured link with a hash like Google Docs does it.
I haven't been using BookStack for too long, so maybe I'm missing a clever way to achieve this with the existing permission system?

@wutfan Thanks for this request. I agree this would be a great feature and there's not currently a way to do this.

Hijack the authenticate and bypass the url prefix '/books/', '/search/', '/uploads/images/', set the permission of one book to public, close global 'public access', and I have this feature with minimum code changes.
Hope for the official implements with QRCode url.
