I gues the idea was to keep it as a separate daemon and have the
implementation which can easily change.<br>
The "why it's not installed by default" was the reason why I CCed
Michael yesterday. I hope he will answer here.<br>

heard, the snapcraft team was or did a sprint to
address current limitations snaps have regarding
the invocation of external processes.
Specifically, it would be nice to launch the
user's default browser with a URL, or let a snap
invoke another instance of itself. What's the
status on this?<br>
><br>
</span>Hey Spencer,<br>
<br>
Default browser should works for some months
already if your application<br>
(or toolkit, like Qt does) invoke the xdg-open to
open the url. This is<br>
then transmitted via dbus to an external process
on your classic system<br>
which then issues the real xdg-open command.<br>
For the others, there are been indeed multiple
discussions on this at<br>
multiple places (here, on the bug report…), but no
action or firm<br>
decision. I'm CCing Gustavo as he was the one
against a more generic<br>
intermediate solutions.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Didier<br>
