I unpacked the snap from the dev channel, remove the DISABLE_WAYLAND
definition, added the wayland plug, but the application still fails to
display a window:
ubuntu@groovyvm:~$ chromium --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
--ozone-platform=wayland
[5042:5042:0928/181747.909095:ERROR:egl_util.cc(70)] Failed to load GLES

(chrome:4835): dbind-WARNING **: 18:17:48.525: Could not open X display
This requires more investigation and work.
Also, that phoronix news states that it's unlikely to ship soon in the
stable builds.

Title:
[snap] Chromium dev cuts off Wayland display
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since v87 Chromium ships with support for Ozone/Wayland:
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Chrome-87-Ozone-Try-Again.
This build flag is not disabled in dev (edge) channel build, so it should be
possible to run Chromium with flags
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland.
This does not work due to environment variable DISABLE_WAYLAND set to 1 here:
https://git.launchpad.net/~chromium-team/chromium-browser/+git/snap-from-source/tree/snapcraft.yaml?h=dev#n18.
