Thanks for this proposal, it looks like what we need. You'll probably want to tweak the details of the "options" parameter to be consistent with existing OS.File API calls that deal with permissions: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/JavaScript_OS.File/OS.File_for_the_main_thread > I would like to get this done and baked as soon as possible so it can > be uplifted to ESR31, so please let's stay focused this time. I think that the fastest route would be to post an updated API proposal to bug 1001849, limited only to the low-level API, and request needinfo from David. When the API is defined, you'll need to ask for code review and an additional super-review on a patch matching the API, as usual. Anyone interested can join the discussion there: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1001849 You may want to file a separate bug for the high-level API, since it is not essential to the feature you'd like to have ready for the ESR, and tying it to the other bug might slow it down unnecessarily.
