Download Image - It's not easy

Currently there is not an easy way to download an image.
Currently we need a certain setup to even open an image full-screen, but then once it’s up, we can’t download or share, none of the typical image options present themselves.
However, there is an action to download a file, but this doesn’t work with image/drawing/thumbnail columns… So, we can build a virtual column type file with TEXT([image_column]) and then the system even auto creates the open file action… Alternatively we could build a getablefile URL, but I think that has different limitations… ideally we could long press an image from anywhere, and download it… OR better yet, how about a typical share button that is present with most media online these days.

There is an action to download a file? Where is this available?

It works for file columns. I can’t remember exactly if I could hack the download file action, or if I had to create a virtual that was a file type
