Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1072

As part of my quest to misuse firejail for jailing zsh's, I'd quite like to get a zsh that is capable of reading /var/log, this doesn't seem to be possible since a tmpfs is mounted on top of it.

Would it make sense to have a --no-tmpfs option to disable default tmpfs mounts.

All set in git:

       --writable-var-log
              Use the real /var/log directory, not  a  clone.  By  default,  a
              tmpfs  is  mounted  on top of /var/log directory, and a skeleton
              filesystem is created based on the original /var/log.

              Example:
              $ sudo firejail --writable-var-log
