$ snap run kate

It still crashes when I go to "File"->"Open" or "File"->"Open Folder". However,
this time I happened to run it in a directory with files to edit and noticed
the file browser/project open on the left. I can click on files from that list
and edit and save them. Either using "ctrl+s", my usual, or "File"->"Save".
"File"->"Open Recent"->then pick a file listed, also works to open a file. I
also tried "Open Folder" and "Open File" from the "Welcome" screen and that
also crashed. I just tried "File"->"Save As" and it crashed also. This then
suggests that it maybe it isn't simply about accessing the file system at all
but something a bit more subtle.

Thanks for your work.
