Public bug reported:

After migrating from deb to snap in Ubuntu 19.10, I'm no longer able to
open downloaded files.

For convenience, I've set my download folder to /tmp - this directory
gets automatically cleared after download.

However, with snap, as a result, the files get physically saved to
/tmp/snap.chromium/tmp.

Because /tmp/snap.chromium/ directory is owned by root:root, with 700
permissions - nobody but root can view these files.

** Affects: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
