Exclude a path or paths from snapshots?

Is it possible to exclude a path or paths from snapshots in snapcraft.yaml or snap/hooks? I’m especially concerned about the automatic snapshot when doing snap remove. We have potentially dozens of GBs of non-critical downloaded resources in a subfolder in $SNAP_USER_COMMON, and we’d like to consider not backing all of that up. Could a remove hook do this? I haven’t found any documentation on how to override default behavior in this case.
