You're going to deal with the users who can't attach a file to an email because the firefox process has no access to it?

To be fair, if firefox had the intelligence to know that it was being asked to attach a file it didn't have access to, it could prompt for a password. I don't expect full TRAMP like smarts from Emacs, but I don't see why this wouldn't be doable?
Granted, I'm viewing this as far easier than the sandbox "fake file system" approach? Firefox would be able to see the file exists, most likely, but just not have read rights to it. Yes, you can have some things it can't list, but I would expect that to be low on probability to want to attach to an email?
