I am not sure in the case of Vivaldi, but as I see, in case of FF and Chrome it is design decision. Accessing the file system "directly" is simple not desired, as it can be easily abused. Google just one to make sure no one creates an addon which can be mess things up. I do not approve this approach, but no one asked me... ;)
The real question for us is where to take TW, after the TW addon is not functional anymore. While the Palemoon browser is an option for the tech savvy people, for the rest it is not really an option to install an additional browser. Ákos On Donnerstag, 9.
