Questions about snappy app sandbox

[Nick McCloud]

I too would find that very useful. As well as mongo (so sockets based), I am looking at some Python libraries that talk to hardware and aren't generally exposed via sockets. Can we load files read-only from other snaps? I'd be a bit loathed to wrap them in a RESTful interface - more to debug/go wrong and a potential security hole.
