Maybe not related to the policy as such, but one thing I have always
wondered about, but not had the time to investigate (as I have only
installed one snap deliberately on my system), is the release upgrade path.

When I installed my "one and only" snap, I had to manually remove the
old deb package manually.

Will this be managed automagically if a flavour chooses a snap in their
seed rather than the old deb package?
