Password protected gallery does not permit sharing

Hi Chaps,
I have made significant progress in testing of my test site now to the point that I may replace my CE4 site with BL. On testing the use of password protected galleries today, I noticed that the sharing option is not displayed even if using the same base template.
In my test site URL below, there is an Album set called Technical. Within it are two albums, one of which is password protected. Both use the same template. As this is a test site the username is the default guest and the password is drum.
Is the suppression of the sharing feature disabled by design when a password is used on an album? I can see why it might be but I thought I'd ask the question anyway.
I'm keen to get the WP module that is on the bottom of the PRL/backlog so in the meantime I have switched the blog from my  CE4 theme and there are two menu items on the blog to either take you back to the live site or development site. I'm one of those people who like the blog to look like it is part of the site but don't have the time (through other commitments) to work out how to inherit design and style without using the integration tools for numpties like me.
Although I like the cascading/nested menus, I might cap them at top level for galleries as on a mobile the tree view is like a Californian Redwood.
Hats off to the pair of you for making the creation of a basic site simple.
Regards,
TomO

Sharing buttons are hidden in password protected albums by design.
