I for one would very much like to see this built. I was surprised to learn
that this was not handled already, because if live snap works in Fedora, why
not CentOS, you know...
Up until recently this was taken care of by Centos so there was no problem.
Now that it is not we're working on finding the best path to solve this.
There is no question that we will handle this.
