App Sandbox is configurable. You can configure it to: - allow no file access at all - allow only files chosen from NSOpen/SavePanel (com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write) - allow specific paths (com.apple.security.temporary-exception.files.absolute-path.read-write) - allow full access (com.apple.security.temporary-exception.files.absolute-path.read-write with the path "/") There are also readonly and readwrite varieties. (As to what the store allows... I have no idea because I never touch the Walled Garden, but it's orthogonal to what App Sandbox supports.)
