This is ok as-is. It's a hack of the SecurityOrigin design 😕. I think what we want is a new concept for fine-grained file system permission for what path(s) a Security Origin can access. You're running into the the all-or-nothing design (<--- what grantLoadLocalResources() is controlling) we have now and hacking it to support a single non-file URL that maps to a single file path. Works for QuickLook and I think that's all we need to care about (though depends on the impl detail that QuickLook can load multiple? files from the same file path, right? – we're only equal matching one path, not even checking if url.fileSystemPath() is a sub-directory or file under the "dirname(m_filePath)"). 

Maybe all this concept is semi-related if not entirely SecurityPolicy. Something about this code feels weird, but seems like it will work for now. Might want to take a look at SecurityPolicy.

Right. QuickLook should never generate a preview document that loads other file: URLs. It should only generate a preview document that loads x-apple-ql-id: URLs.

FWIW, I did look at solving this with a combination of SecurityOriginPolicy and SecurityPolicy's origin access whitelist, but decided against it because it ended up being significantly more complicated for something that only QuickLook seems to need. I'm open to other designs, though.

Thanks for reviewing!
