Don't bother.  They won't change it.  The inability to access these places is 
intentional.  It means that programs can't read each-other's files so malware 
programs (e.g. spyware, ransomeware) don't work.  This API is similar to what 
is available on mobile platforms (e.g. Android, iPhone) where it is extremely 
important that one program cannot interfere with another.

The question that interests me is why SQLite uses CreateFile2.  I know nothing 
about this platform, but CreateFile exists and StorageFile exists, and don't 
have the restrictions.  But perhaps CreateFile2 is the obvious thing to use 
here for some reason.
