I think this was a constraint in earlier versions of the OS and I'm curious to know whether it's still the case.
No, that is a basic design restriction of iOS devices. Each app is completely sandboxed and cannot interact with other apps.
You can copy a file from one app to another, Apple provide an "Open In..." API that mediates between the two apps, but that creates a separate copy of the file in the filespace of the second app, you cannot share a file between two apps.
