Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I shouldn't have go through whole codebase to be sure an app which only controlls light temperature whether can acces to my files or not, runs as network service etc.

Describe the solution you'd like snap allows applications to run on any snap installed linux distro securely via jailed settings. it is easy to setup your applications as a snap package and it is easy to use for clients. This way anyone who want to try your app won't have doubts about security and this will happen without having to go through whole codebase to be sure. Not only it is more secure also it is way easier for end user to just click install on snapstore instead of compiling, installing, creating autostart etc. also thanks to snap apps will automatically upgrade on background without an effort.

Describe alternatives you've considered Flatpak

Additional context I want to try an app without giving up security (should take 5 minute) i shouldn't have to check whole codebase to be sure and check every version. If i know that an app only can acces to its own directory not anything else(jailed, contained) i wouldn't think twice to install it.
