Public bug reported:

After upgrading from 19.04 to 19.10, my Chromium package was converted
to a snap. After figuring out how to manually reconnect the password
manager, and figuring out how to apply CHROMIUM_FLAGS that used to live
in /etc/chromium-browser/default, and noticing that GMail is no longer
able to play a sound when a call comes in, now I see that I am unable to
upload files from anywhere except my home directory! Connecting chromium
:removable-media as in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/chromium-browser/+bug/1832711 does not help with anything else. Is
there some way to let the file upload dialog work on any file my user
account has access to? Or run this snap in --classic mode? If not, this
seems like a critical limitation, as I need this multiple times a day.
Switching to Chrome or Firefox cannot be the only workaround for this,
surely?
