Classic confinement request for kadrivesync

name: KADrivesync

description: KADrivesync is a desktop application for Ubuntu that mounts Google Drive as a local folder in Nautilus. It provides a guided experience so users do not need to manually configure rclone, FUSE, or a systemd --user service.

snapcraft: drivenautilus/snap/snapcraft.yaml at main · kampos/drivenautilus · GitHub

upstream: GitHub - kampos/drivenautilus: KADrivesync: Google Drive as a local folder in Nautilus without sync · GitHub

upstream-relation: I am the upstream author and maintainer.

supported-category: file managers

reasoning: KADrivesync needs classic confinement because it must run rclone mount against a user-owned remote, manage a real FUSE mount on the host system, and create and control a user-level systemd service for automatic mounting. The application also needs to expose the mounted path as a normal local folder in Nautilus. These host-level file system and desktop integration requirements are not sufficiently supported by strict confinement for this workflow.

Thank you for your review.
