        I don't see how this differs in a meaningful
  way from the existing solution that was refused by
  the SBo admins.  The only minor difference is that
  you're extracting Signal from  a snap instead of a
  .deb archive.  The testing glibc is installed into
  /opt, and Signal binaries  are patched to point to
  that glibc instead of  the system one.  If there's
  some  other important  difference here,  please do
  explain it a bit more.
