Closing the Gmail tab will not help.
I rarely use gmail web UI. At least in the case of KDE, Firefox releases file descriptor a few seconds after compose dialog is closed. It seems even closing the tab is not necessary. It was a file on an internal drive, but I do not think it matters.
appe@renaissance:~$ lsof | grep -i KINGSTON x-www-bro 83803 appe 128r REG 8,33 3433 6939 /media/appe/KINGSTON/noname/file4.gpg x-www-bro 83803 83807 glean.dis appe 128r REG 8,33 3433 6939 /media/appe/KINGSTON/noname/file4.gpg
[...] From my point of view it is in contradiction with the original complain:
I am worried Gmail in a Firefox tab is able to break out of Firefox somehow, gaining unauthorized access to 128 files on a mounted USB stick.
Isn't /media/appe/KINGSTON/noname/file4.gpg the file you attached? What are other 127 files?
