I'd like to keep my vault in a hidden folder, but the file tree in add vault>local file does not display them.

To be honest, I find the current implementation a little weird - since the extension needs to connect to the desktop app in this use case anyway, why not just have it display a list of available archives? It's quite confusing being presented with my root directory like in the current implementation.

I'm running Firefox 86.0 on Fedora 33, if that's relevant.

@Denzo77 This is just the way the file-host connection (local support in the extension) is implemented. I like the idea of an option to just connect to vaults in the desktop app, but it doesn't serve any purpose for other vault types (Dropbox etc.), so I don't see the benefit over the file system browsing currently implemented. Perhaps something could be added in the secure file host repo to support hidden files? I'm not sure. I'd happily consider a PR for it.

I'll move this to that repo, as it doesn't really concern the extension.
