Request for classic confinement and manual review approval for 'floatboard'

Hello Snapcraft Store Team,

I am writing to request classic confinement for the latest uploaded version of my application “floatboard” (Revision 3), which is currently pending manual review.

FloatBoard is an Electron-based, productivity-focused floating clipboard manager. The core functionality of the app strictly requires:

  1. Globally monitoring and hooking into system clipboard events (for both text and images) across all other running applications.
  2. Managing a transparent, always-on-top floating window overlay that the user can interact with smoothly without losing focus on their current tasks.

Under strict confinement, the security sandbox prevents the app from reliably accessing the global clipboard and managing its window bounds and focus, particularly under Wayland constraints. Therefore, classic confinement is essential for the application to function properly and deliver its intended core features.

Could you please review Revision 3 and grant the necessary classic confinement?

Thank you for your time and assistance!
