This may be a dumb question, as I haven't worked with the sandbox much and am somewhat ignorant of it, but is there a way to just ask for permission to open a specific file and have a "Cancel or allow" box come up, or is the only option to run a standard NSOpenPanel and run the risk that the user might change the file that's selected before dismissing it? If so, how does one do that? I don't see anything in the NSOpenPanel docs.
