Share links should open in the native app!

Ask:
Please consider allowing share links to open in the native desktop app vs. the browser for users who have access to the desktop version.

Problem:
Often Figma links are shared multiple times throughout the day and in each instance of this a new browser window is opened using considerable amounts of CPU memory allocated to the browser window/tab. This is inefficient especially if a designer already has the file open in the desktop app.

@Jose_Colon this is already ‌an option in Figma: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039824334-Open-links-in-the-desktop-app

Are you (or your users who are using the app that you’ve shared the files to) not able to get your files deferred to the native app when opening, even with these settings on?
