Public bug reported:

I've observed a regression in snapd on 18.04 daily where launching URLs
from confined snapped applications no longer works.

## Expected behaviour

Clicking a menu entry or button that links to a URL should open the link
in my default browser.

## Actual behaviour

No link is opened.

## Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  * Install Ubuntu 18.04 (daily) or Ubuntu MATE 18.04 (daily)
  * snap install gimp
  * snap run gimp
  * Mouse to Help -> GIMP Online -> Developer Website
  * The link doesn't open and an error like the following is to sent to stdout:

Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: An AppArmor policy prevents this 
sender from sending this message to this recipient; type="method_call", 
sender=":1.4364" (uid=1000 pid=21669 comm="dbus-send --print-reply --session 
--dest=io.snapcr" label="snap.gimp.gimp (enforce)") 
interface="io.snapcraft.Launcher" member="OpenURL" error name="(unset)" 
requested_reply="0" destination="io.snapcraft.Launcher" (bus)
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name 
com.canonical.SafeLauncher was not provided by any .service files
