@kulmann makes sense for the product I'd say, do you agree?

For Shares, including public links, I agree. But for Spaces I'm not fully convinced. At least it's more complex than that. I believe the wish for exceptions like "immediate edit mode if I'm the file owner" or "immediate edit mode if I'm the space manager" would arise quickly...

Implemented via #9879. The new config option editor.openAsPreview needs to be set to enable this feature. It can either be true to enable it for all apps, or an array of apps, e.g. ['Office356'].
