SUMMARY
Images are unable to be rendered until more file-access permissions are granted. The default permissions should be augmented.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Drag an image into the edit pane. A Markdown-syntax image embed emerges. No image is displayed in the preview.
2. Exit Ghostwriter. Using Flatseal, grant read permission of the home directory to Ghostreader.
3. Start Ghostreader. The image now appears as expected.

VERSIONS
System: Ubuntu 24.04
Flatpak: 1.14.6
