Hi Chris, I guess that would do it - there is a terminal command to allow/deny access to ~/Library.
To answer your question, the application in question is my SQLiteAdmin db admin program for SQLite databases. I had a user who wanted to browse a database that was in his ~/Library/ApplicationSupport folder. Also see my later note to this. I'm think my application should support drag/drop opening of databases.
