Research direction

Start in electrum/gui/qt/main_window.py at do_export, specifically the open call at line 2041, and inspect the export flow for the .bip70 path. Reproduce the reported permission failure on the listed Linux/Python setup if possible; done should mean the export failure has a defined, tested outcome without this crash.
