The issue is fixed now, the current snap revision uses the desktop portals which provides a picker on the real filesystem which allows to access any location the normal user can browser (the program still doesn't have access so it can't go read things it shouldn't, it requires user interaction to go pick from the selector)

When I receive a LibreOffice document as attachment and try to open it from Thunderbird, I get the following error message: """ /tmp/mozilla-antoine0/mydoc.docx doesn't exist """ I don't understand the point of restricting filesystem access from a word processor. At least this is a clear regression from the apt package.
