Ill give it a shot. Ive been feeling quite vulnerable on 16.04 due to the absurd amount of unfixed bugs. I have a couple of questions

- its mentioned that it does not have access to documents and downloads within the user folder. When it wants/needs read access, how am I told?

- if it doesnt have access to these folders, does it only write to its own subset?

- is it possible to make my home downloads folder an aggregate of the application downloads?

- when uninstalling/purging, since its sandboxed it deletes all of the content or keeps it? Can I force removal as well?

- how does subgraph deal with shared services/folders/info? Can I share a service with another user? Can I share the network setting modifications with other users?

- how can I prevent an application from using the network without my knowledge?

- are the tools like nethogs/top for subgraph that can take advantage of the compartments to show a more realistic view of whats going on?

I think this has a lot of potential!
