NextExplorer replaces FileBrowser Quantum as the recommended file server and the hub other services route through, so it joins the external storage registry. The mount is the same shape as FileBrowser Quantum's, uid 1000 idmapped to www-data, but the files_external entry exposes only the Files drive: NextExplorer's volume root also holds `_users`, one private directory per account, which an all-users mount would hand to every Nextcloud user. That is what the new `dataDir` field carries. The dependency floor is the community release, 2.2.7:0, so a box that installed it from there before the move still satisfies it. The revision skips :2, which is already on alpha. Verified on the dev box: selecting NextExplorer declares the dependency, Nextcloud restarts with the volume mounted as www-data, files_external lists /NextExplorer with datadir /mnt/nextexplorer/Files, a file written as www-data lands on disk as uid 1000, and NextExplorer reads and deletes it.
