> and you need a Java/Kotlin bridge to convert these to file descriptors.

Do you need it in these languages or could you use anything that can make binder calls?

To my knowledge you cannot access SAF through binder, for sure not officially.

You need it in the same sense you need to load the system's vulkan driver. System libraries don't have more permissions, but it's going to be extra work to reimplement and your code may break on different versions or devices.
