Disabling automatic refresh for snap from store

@niemeyer The difference is, with auto-update the update is being installed on my system automatically, and without auto-update I am choosing to install that update on my system. You’re taking away my element of choice.

I was specifically responding to the actual point you made regarding trust on the snap being published.

Again, if I’m using a “scheduling” feature to delay auto-updates to their maximum length, but I’m obviously going to want to update sooner than that in practice, the entire auto-update feature is adding work for me while not affecting my final update schedule at all… so why doesn’t the system just allow me to turn off auto-updates?

I’m glad to hear the automatic update won’t in fact be a problem for you in practice. This is the key thing we want to ensure.
