Apparently I can write files in ChromeOS.

You get access to this if you have written a Chromebook app. If you get a user to install that, there is a clear set of permissions they are accepting. See the section on permissions, which is specified in the app manifest. It is not an open hole for anything running on a Chromebook.


Or a Chrome app, even though they are currently deprecated.

Yes the user needs to install it, and then it is free reign for $HOME.

So it isn't Download location only.
