I rarely use gmail web UI. At least in the case of KDE, Firefox releases
file descriptor a few seconds after compose dialog is closed. It seems
even closing the tab is not necessary. It was a file on an internal
drive, but I do not think it matters.

 From my point of view it is in contradiction with the original complain:

Isn't /media/appe/KINGSTON/noname/file4.gpg the file you attached? What 
are other 127 files?
