Is it good to access sharing_tracker from the frontend thread? Since this is basically just calling len() on a dict, I think it's okay, but it seems messy to me. At the very least, I think we need a comment explaining why we can do it.

I think it would be cleaner if SharingTracker sent a message to the frontend whenever the count changes and the frontend used that data.
