</span>Those are all very good points, and I agree with them. It appears, to<br>
me, though, that systemd has many features that can enhance<br>
confinement and/or tailor it in very targeted ways. It would be nice<br>
to be able to leverage those features. And many of its directives<br>
don't break confinement (especially some very common ones like<br>
Condition* and ExecStartPre/Post, Before, After, PartOf, Wants,<br>
Conflicts, RuntimeDirectory, and others. Perhaps snapcraft could have<br>
a whitelist of allowed directives when confinement mode is strict?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
