[Feature request] Flatpak support

[kekonn]

I run the flatpak version of firefox, so command -v firefox returns nothing. I tried setting the setting for the executable path to flatpak run org.mozilla.firefox but that doesn't work.

What would be required to enable this kind of support?

I have no idea how flatpak apps work but...
What does which firefox give you, when typed inside a terminal?
If that doesn't give anything, then your firefox can't be located inside the environment you are running...

which firefox gives me nothing, because flatpaks usually aren't registered in the environment. They are run through the flatpak command or registered as .desktop files.

But all I need to know is, why wouldn't entering the flatpak command to run firefox as a path in the settings, work?

I have found the flatpak executable in:
/home/<my-home>/.local/share/flatpak/app/org.mozilla.firefox/current/active/files/lib/firefox

but after a few seconds a pop-up appears sayng:
connect ECONNREFUSED::1:6000
