Love it, thanks! I'll save that article and go through it in detail,
and maybe try it for Zoom.

That got me thinking, and I wrote a little Python script to help
with that. Give it a command, and it runs it under strace and
gives you a sorted list of all the directories containing files
the program opened, and the list of files from each directory.
That, combined with the chrootbuilder script that Rick mentioned,
might make this at least a bit easier. And it's kind of fun to
run in general, to see what files are being opened.
