@Ebuzer: Downloads are already stored by default outside of the
versioned directory, in the user's XDG downloads directory (typically
$HOME/Downloads). The rationale for versioning the profile directory is
that the storage format isn't backwards compatible, so downgrading a
snap to a previous revision would potentially render a profile unusable.

@Roman: this is indeed something that, longer-term, should be addressed
in snapd itself. This is merely a stop-gap measure to mitigate the
problem until this happens. Note that ubuntu-bug hanging sounds
unrelated to this particular issue. Can you elaborate on what you're
trying to do, and how it hangs?
