Snap’s containment features seemed like a good way to offer a more secure binary, so we initially opted in. In hindsight, that choice introduced more restrictions than expected for Processing’s typical use cases, particularly in education or when using serial devices, custom libraries, or sketches that expect full file access.

Setting the confinement to classic directly breaks forks of the repo that will not get this permission. So would need to be migrated to an environment variable.

Also looks like - confinement 'classic' not allowed with plugs/slots the existing plugs would need to be removed
