if you app must be a web app then maybe you could go the HTML5 way ? i ve hard HTML5 has a File api. I personally never used it. But if it possible for you to deploy you app as a desktop application then you could pack it as a Aode AIR application. This will enable local file access for you. The library here can help you do that http://code.google.com/p/gwt4air/. Another solution would be the Titanium runtime located here : http://www.appcelerator.com/. I m working on a GWT API for Titanium rigt now. In the mean time you might have to go the pure JS way or write a wrapper youself.
