`root-path` is actually the root of the device (and from what I can see it's an undocumented option). So it's actually worse than you think.

oh I see, sorry I'm still processing all of this, thanks! The user can still type the folder out in `about:config` even if they don't have access to it but yeah, not really a use case.
