@nmann84   I fully agree that this issue should be marked with a higher
priority.  But as mentioned by @kwill in comment #22, there's a pretty
simple workaround, namely:

"Create a text file called ~/.hidden and put the word "snap" inside it.
"snap" will now be treated as a hidden folder by Nautilus."

I don't understand the details, but @niemeyer stated the following in
comment #40:

"we're working on better ways to allow snaps to have access to read and
write data in the system in a controlled way. After that happens, we
WILL remove this directory from your homes into a better place."

So, I guess you could say that the status isn't just "confirmed" but is
more like "'confirmed' and awaiting completion of other work, after
which will be 'in progress'" (if such a status existed).
