	// Systemd automatically places services under a unique cgroup encoding the

	//
	// The way this happens is as follows:
	//
	// 1) Services are implemented using systemd service units. Starting a
	// unit automatically places it in a cgroup named after the service unit
	// name. Snapd controls the name of the service units thus indirectly
	// controls the cgroup name.
	//
	// 2) Non-services, including hooks, are started inside systemd
	// transient scopes. Scopes are a systemd unit type that are defined
	// programmatically and are meant for groups of processes started and
	// stopped by an _arbitrary process_ (ie, not systemd). Systemd
	// requires that each scope is given a unique name. We employ a scheme
	// where random UUID is combined with the name of the security tag
	// derived from snap application or hook name. Multiple concurrent
	// invocations of "snap run" will use distinct UUIDs.
	//
	// Transient scopes allow launched snaps to integrate into
	// the systemd design. See:
	// https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ControlGroupInterface/
	//
	// Programs running as root, like system-wide services and programs invoked
	// using tools like sudo are placed under system.slice. Programs running as
	// a non-root user are placed under user.slice, specifically in a scope
	// specific to a logind session.
	//
	// This arrangement allows for proper accounting and control of resources
	// used by snap application processes of each type.
	//
