Output from 'snap find':
error: cannot list snaps: empty query
This used to list all available snaps, but in the version from proposed this seems to no longer work. According to the man page it should:
find
Finds packages to install
The find command queries the store for available packages.
Usage: snap [OPTIONS] find [find-OPTIONS]
AIUI, [...] means "optional", so keywords should not be needed.

There seems to be an issue with it not being displayed as required in the help output. For now at least it _is_ required.
There is another issue about the error message being unclear.
"snap find" without arguments has not shown "all available snaps" in quite a while; it would show 100 arbitrary snaps. That is expensive and never what the user wanted, so in 2.11 we stopped doing that.
