(this is a follow-up to Auto-connecting the hardware-observe interface to allow firefox to detect GPU via libpci?)
Firefox uses libpci to detect the GPU to decide whether to enable the hardware-accelerated codepath for the rendering of web content.
When strictly confined as a snap, this requires additional permissions to query the hardware, hence the need for the hardware-observe
plug. This was added upstream recently.
This is a request for the corresponding store declaration to auto-connect the interface.
Thanks for considering it!
