Bug Description
Due to the fact that snaps are very restricted one is unable to open local files outside of ones own home directory.
An example where such an access is common are files from *-doc packages like `/usr/share/
I don't know if this is fixable with the current interfaces or if this requires a classic confinement mode but I miss this feature as sometimes running a webserver is not an option...

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Just an FYI: If you connect the removable-media plug, you should be able to access files and directories mounted under /mnt and /media; it won't expand to /usr/share/ though.
