warren, this is yours.
Try file:/// (3 slashes) -- maybe this is a dup. Doug's new nsIFile will fix

Target Milestone: M14
I can get a file listing (3 slashes or 2) but when I select the file it doesn't 
load.  Actually, when you click on the file an arrow appears besides it like on 
sub-directories.
