Fair enough, so I updated our ticket to reflect that we should
actually test this. What forensics toolkits would you suggest us to
use for these tests?

However, Tails is also about "Working on sensitive documents" [0],
and I'm told people working on video often need FireWire.
So, the answer to "what to do in the meantime?" is not that obvious
to me.

Sorry, we still have not discussed what usability vs. security balance
we want in this area. For the record, these are tracked there:
