So Rainbow would prevent a regular activity from reading .sugar? I am
not familiar with how one goes about exceptions and such. I've
recently seen activities that do "out of the sandbox" things (Tony's
data manager, dsd's audio fixer...), don't know how...

Alternatively, a python script to run on the Terminal might help (but
an activity is much better, naturally)

We can offer the patch to deployers, and I can integrate it into a
build. But our reach is limited there. A user-deployable "repair" tool
is a lot more effective.
