The Etoys code just assumed that object_id was in fact an UID for the 
datastore. To get the file associated with a UID you need to call 
get_properties. However, what we get from the object chooser is not always a 
UID, but sometimes a full path. We must not call get_properties on that, but 
simply open it.

Yes, my fix to Etoys means that it can now use the object chooser to open files 
from external USB drive.
