Please note that the described feature is actually in place already with
the recent freeze. Over the next week we'll be transitioning most of the
hard coded rules to assertions.

May take a little while for the review tools to catch up, but it's coming
very soon.

Nicely done!

Just to state the plan of record, we intend that store assertions can
pre-approve some auto-connection, or cue up a prompt for interactive
installations where the user is asked if they want to connect.

So in your case, the experience should become something like:

  $ sudo snap install handbrake
  Allow 'handbrake' to access DVDs? (Y/N) Y
  handbrake 1.3.2 installed
