[Bug 1972762] Re: Firefox and Chromium snaps preventing apps and devices from working correctly.

[Håkon Strandenes]

This is a severe regression that absolutely needs to be fixed ASAP.

There are several tools and applications for various purposes produce
HTML documentation or reports, that cannot be opened in Firefox.

For example:
- Intel Advisor: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/advisor/user-guide/2023-0/work-with-standalone-html-reports.html

- ARM performance reports:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/101137/1912/Interpreting-
performance-reports

There are tons of other software that produce similar HTML reports
(Autodesk Nastran, Comsol, ...)

As a developer, I reach into multiple other problems:

- I cannot access Sphinx or Doxygen generated HTML documentation
- Cython html annotations are not possible to access

All of the mentioned HTML files are residing in NFS-mounted folders that
lie outside the users home directory, which I cannot access from the
Snap Firefox.
