Description

When attempting to read entries of a DirectoryEntry from the local file system the plugin returns an FileError code 5.

I am able to successfully read the root directory of the local file system using window.requestFileSystem() but creating a directoryReader and calling readEntries() of any sub directories of the root file system results in the error.

I am using Cordova 3.3 and have tried both 0.2.5 of the file plugin as well as the current Dev branch.
