Don't know about iOS, but at least on OS X you can do this, depending on the 
definition of arbitrary. In other words, you can set up entitlements to 
specific files in preferences that are not named by your bundle identifier, as 
would be necessary for shared preferences between a suite of apps. But of 
course you can't give yourself an entitlement to ~/Library/Preferences and then 
wander through the whole directory.
