I'm not sure if you are talking about the image generation process only, but I
thought for normal install the 'confinement' flag in the yaml indicates that the
snap cannot be installed without specifying --devmode. If it is instead simply a
way to tell 'snap install' to install in devmode without specifying --devmode,
then we've effectively reintroduced 'unconfined' and people might install things
thinking they are confined when they are not.

Speaking of which-- do we indicate anywhere that a snap is operating in devmode?
I just installed hello-world with --devmode and I don't see in 'snap list' or
'snap interfaces' anything indicating it is in devmode.
