FWIW, I am not a fan of the presumed-safe approach to filesystem locations, and
even less so of relaxed permissions via configuration.
One thing which has been discussed is to add support for vaults, like macOS
keychain etc, as an alternative to filesystem acceess. Are there any such
capabilities on Android which could be relied upon?
