Let's not transform this bug into a feature request for u8.  :)

(Though just converting autostart files to systemd user-units is
probably a better use of our time?)

But your point about not worrying about converting .desktop files that
are only used for xdg-autostarting makes sense.

Bug description:
  Noticed and reported by mterry in several indicator patches, e.g.
  <https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/indicator-sound/snap-
  root/+merge/308125>:

  > There are also two hardcoded paths in the data/*.desktop.in files.
  > But that's a static desktop file, so $SNAP isn't appropriate.
  > I think it makes more sense to update the code that reads those
  > files to do the prefixing.

  There is also an umbrella ticket for hardcoded paths in the u8 snap:
