support for sharing MacOS full screen apps in other Spaces (virtual screens/desktops)
Most Mac users work with fullscreen apps when they are serious to focus on something. A full screen app gets it's own Space. When using MS With Teams functionality as is, you can only share non-fullscreen windows that are on the first Space (Desktop 1) or share all of Desktop 1. When I work with MS Teams, I have to fiddle with my windows to make it work. Sometimes, I'll have the window shared, but then click to make it full screen which drops it from the share. In either case this cases meeting delays.
Instead I'd like to share any Space (which includes full-screen apps) to reduce the window management I need to do with teams.

For anyone in any doubt as to what this means, when you fullscreen an application in macos, it creates a different desktop you can move between by swiping on the mouse. Windows has this concept also being able to have multiple desktops. However, once you do this to an app in macos, you can't share that app or indeed the screen with that app displayed as it doesn't share, which means you have to share an app whilst it is windowed. Not great if you are trying to share a fullscreen remote session with someone.

More people would vote for this if they knew what it meant. Most of my apps are full screen and I have to share my entire screen to share those apps.

Yet another MS winning product brought down by poor coding. The last upgrade made things even crazier, with MS keeping a floating call tab with a minimise button that does not work if clicked, and is in the "wrong" side of the box, intrusive notification banners, and messing up further if opening a chat in a separate window from another space.

Surprised this one isn't getting more votes, as I would like to share any of my Spaces. When I have an external monitor, Teams recognizes that as a 2nd desktop. But not a Full Screen application or additional Space.
