+/**
+ * TemporaryStorageProvider stores decrypted files inside the app's cache directory previously to
+ * sharing them with other applications.
+ *
+ * Security:
+ * - It is writable by OpenKeychain only (see Manifest), but exported for reading files
+ * - It uses UUIDs as identifiers which makes predicting files from outside impossible
+ * - Querying a number of files is not allowed, only querying single files
+ * -> You can only open a file if you know the Uri containing the precise UUID, this Uri is only
+ * revealed when the user shares a decrypted file with another app.
+ *
+ * Why is support lib's FileProvider not used?
+ * Because granting Uri permissions temporarily does not work correctly. See
+ * - https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=76683
