Vincas Dargis has proposed merging ~talkless/apparmor-profiles:fix-thunderbird-attachements into apparmor-profiles:master.

Requested reviews:
  AppArmor Developers (apparmor-dev)

For more details, see:
https://code.launchpad.net/~talkless/apparmor-profiles/+git/apparmor-profiles/+merge/332870

This is modified (no sbin, less explicit) intrigeri patch [0][1] for fixing Debian bug #855346 [2] that disallows Thunderbird users with AppArmor profile enabled to open attachments.

Additional, some cleanup is done to close #876333.

For the record, I do not particularly like this attachment workaround (it allows interpreters, wget...), but because *we do not have abstractions* to cover all (most) various-documents-format-opening cases, so let's agree that:

1. This is *temporary fix* to still have Thunderbird profile Enforced on Debian.
2. I will start initiative to build list of abstractions that would allow Browsers, Email cliends and IM's to open various format downloaded files.
