I guessed as much, but I am still confused about the sudo requirement for 
installation of new snaps;
e.g. if I asked our university admin to install snapcraft, it still wouldn't 
help us (or other teachers), because they don't have sudo priviledges.
(And although an exception can be added from snapcraft, I am not sure whether 
the installation process itself is sandboxed.)
Is this correct?

Thanks,
Peter
