A private loopback network is available in Bubblewrap sandboxes. I.e.
as long as the mock HTTP server is brought up on localhost in the same
BuildStream sandbox as the client tests, I expect this to work. Or have
you encountered any issues with this?

Issues related to running tests in BuildStream:
