As pointed out by Chris, the removable-media interface helps with
reading and saving files under /mnt and /media.

There's currently no interface that allows access to files in
/usr/share.

** Summary changed:

- No access to local files outside /home
+ [snap] No access to HTML documentation in /usr/share/doc

** Tags added: snap

** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

Title:
  [snap] No access to HTML documentation in /usr/share/doc

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

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/doc/python3-doc/html/index.html`.
  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...
