** Description changed:

  Snaps that use the app indicator area via Qt can't display their icon
  there.
  
  Steps to reproduce and screenshot:
  https://github.com/nuttyartist/notes/pull/77
  
  Some research:
  
  - Uses http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsystemtrayicon.html
  - The indicator icon is created under /tmp under a randomly generated 
directory name
  
  didrocks mentions also:
  
  1. The application says "this is my menu, and here is my icon at that 
address", the address being /tmp/blablabla
  2. appindicator receives the bus messages
  3. and says "let's have a look at this icon at that address"
  4. BUT! /tmp in the snap is different form system /tmp

  SRU bug for libappindicator:
  
  [Impact]
  
  Indicator icons pointing to a position inside the snap aren't properly
  found by unity, that shows a "missing icon" emblem
  
  [Test case]
  
  * Download this yaml file http://pastebin.com/raw/FpEvQYGN and save it as 
snapcraft.yaml
    in any folder you want
  * Run:
    - snapcraft prime
    - sudo snap try prime
    - snap run gtk3-appindicator
  
  An indicator should open (with proper icon), then if you select "Set
  icon with Full Path" and/or "Enable Local Theme" from its menu, you
  should see a proper icon.
  
  When snaps are generated in non updated systems, the icon will be still
  missing.
  
  [Regression potential]
  
  If $SNAP is defined for an app not running in snap confinement the icons
  couldn't be properly visible

  An indicator should open, with the proper icon showin. From the window
