@harshach, @ptgoetz OK, good to know it is not as open as I feared.
With the String compare instead of File compare, do we know whether this
will give a string with a trailing slash?
```
(.getCanonicalPath (File. root-dir))
```
If it does, we should be OK. If not, then a user could get to certain
sibling directories. (e.g., if `root-dir` was a directory named "foo", then a
user could read from a sibling directory "foobar").
