This was my first thought also, but then I realized they'd just see there's no system files (or some marker file their app created) and block access.

Then that is another security vulnerability to be patched. There should be no way for an app to tell if it is seeing the complete filesystem, or a filtered/sandboxed view.
Hmm that's a good idea, provide a view of generic system and the app itself..
