Public bug reported:
Due to the fact that snaps are very restricted one is unable to open local
files outside of ones own home directory.
An example where such an access is common are files from *-doc packages like
`/usr/share/doc/python3-doc/html/index.html`.
I don't know if this is fixable with the current interfaces or if this requires
a classic confinement mode but I miss this feature as sometimes running a
webserver is not an option...
