I've been following this issue for about 6 months and not much seems to
have changed in that time. I'm not holding out hope for there being a
fix, but it would definitely be nice if they came up with a workaround
that doesn't involve the user messing about with commandline flags.
MSIE and Firefox both allow access to the local file system. MSIE
through ActiveX (FileSystemObject) and Firefox through XPCOM
(nsILocalFile). They both pop up security alerts when you try to do this
and the user has to give permission to proceed. It would be nice if
Chrome adopted this approach.
