I can confirm that my specific NVIDIA VDPAU bug is fixed on Bionic with snapd 2.37 in bionic-proposed.

The original bug was reported here: https://github.com/maxiberta/moonlight-snap/issues/1
and fixed here: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/6370

I don't know if that's sufficient for verification because there are many more fixes, but it certainly has my +1.

The validation has finished. Results here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10CC2Fh7RhplyMsgiNbI8xdqoE6NnjQZ97ViF7DzSHRc/edit?usp=sharing

An upload of snapd to cosmic-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "The changes relative to 2.37.1 currently in -proposed do not appear to justify an additional test/release cycle, given that the one regression is bionic-specific and does not affect cosmic. Let's release the version currently in -proposed (on Monday) and wait until there is something else that warrants SRUing. Also this will need a separate bug number than the one for the 2.37.1 release.".

An upload of snapd to cosmic-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "As mentioned earlier by Steve's rejection, this probably needs a separate tracking bug number (especially considering that .1 already went out for bionic and cosmic). This is like a separate SRU cycle. Also, it has not been announced officially but we did chat about this (both in the SRU team and with the snapd team) that it would be good for all the changes regarding integration with the system to have a separate bug and test-case (regular SRU template). The .3 upload seems to have some debian/ changes (e.g. some postinst mods) that might warrant such a separate tracking bug just for those.".
