I tried to do this, but eventually resorted to a JavaScript method to get
this done.  JavaScript has a method built in that lets you pop up a native
OS file chooser and select files of the local drives.
It's possible in Java, but requires a lot of security stuff that I never
quite figured out.  If someone knows, I'm still curious.
