This depends on the filemount and rights system of TYPO3 which should be 
extended in this way. Espacially with the DAM people want to use files from 
external ressources.
But this will not come with T3 V4. Maybe a 4.1?

What can be done with .htaccess files if you use Apache.

BTW. Why is there no .htaccess file editor extension?
Is there a good PHP script out there for creating and editing of .htaccess 
files? I could make a module from it and the DAM can show different icons for 
"safe" folders.
