Sandbox this harder (instead of filesystem=host permissions by default)?

Description

Looking at this app with flatseal, I see that it has `filesystem=host` permissions by default. Shouldn't it be restricted to access only `xdg-download` and `xdg-documents` by default, or at best `filesystem=home`?

Research direction

Locate the app's Flatpak manifest and inspect its declared filesystem permissions. Compare the current host access with the proposed xdg-download, xdg-documents, or home restrictions, then use Flatseal to verify that the chosen permissions still support the app's file workflows.
