when it will be possible to open in epiceditor files from local file system #338

So you api allows to do awesome things, like open a file or save a file or rename it, but only within defined local storage. Each api method states the following note:

Note: This does not open files on your server or machine (yet). This simply looks in localStorage where EpicEditor stores drafts.

so the question is, when it will be possible to really open in epiceditor a file from local file system?

Storing a file on the local machine can be done by serving it to the user as text/plain, loading it would need a little upload form.
