Actually, this should be quite possible by using document-scoped bookmarks. If Apple's documentation doesn't help you, you could have a look at the sample project linked here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10259692/app-sandbox-document-scoped-bookmark-not-resolving-not-returning-any-error/10964764#10964764

Cheers,
