## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  Share a work package of a private project with a user that is not a member of the project. The sharing shall allow for commenting only.
    
2.  As the user who received the sharing, open the work package
    

### What is the buggy behavior?

*   The user is not able to write a comment. However, the user is allowed to give Emoji reactions, which is only possible when you have the rights to comment. So the user is having the right permissions. The input field does not check those correctly.
    

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  The user should be able to write a comment.
