The URLs in Reader Share Link should be shorter and more email safe

Today a generated link is something like https://adobefreeuserschannel.au1.documents.adobe.com/public/fs?aid=CBF45453AAABLblqZhBwgVMrqA7f3tI-6IN5IudA6-h7YeKuE93QPcl0634634DF4euoeruerwCRKoA44cZD3sk*​

This is great in uniqueness sense but this is just waiting to break in various email clients.  And once we have a broken link - its useless.

As this bit of text floats around the email world it will get mangled ad lost

Why not use a "url shortener" algorithm to make it less likely to be broken

say maybe

https://shortlink.adobe.com/eruyer4534343

This will make it a more powerful option to share signed documents and the like

Cheers

Brad

ps.  I am raising this here because for the life of me I could not work out how to send feedback to Adobe
