Hello,

Follow up from a call with Pedro Coca and Didier Roche, I'm sending my
question on the mailing list as agreed:

On an IoT device, in the situation of a branded store (so not the main
public one), how can I do snaps for my device that have special extra
rights?
Is it already planned how to achieve this? If yes how? If no can this be
planned?

By extra rights, I mean adding access to extra syscalls (others from
those already granted in network and otheralready existing interfaces),
or read_paths or write_paths, kind of like what was possible before with
unconfined/old-security stuff which have been removed.
I guess this means adding new interfaces which grant those extra rights?


Thanks!

Regards,
