when launching a snap from the dash it's also displaying a blank
"unity8" window in addition to the functional app window. Assuming that
is because of this workaround using --desktop_file_hint=unity8
you can test with ubuntu-calendar-app or address-book-app from store:
sudo snap install --edge --force-dangerous --devmode ubuntu-calendar-app
