Comment #6 on issue 3191 by bd...@google.com: Add menu item for opening a  
local file
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3191

It seems the reasoning (reading between the lines of the comment Ben made  
on my patch
review) was that the need to open local files most often comes from web  
developers
rather than regular users. Web developers are more likely to be comfortable  
just
accessing this functionality via Alt+O. Regular users who do want to open  
local files
probably more often do so by double clicking them in explorer.

It'd be nice to see data to back this up, but it does seem generally  
reasonable if
the goal is to keep the UI clean and minimal.
