研究方向
Investigate the current Briefcase configuration in the repository (likely in 'packaging/' or 'briefcase/' directory). Review linked issue #3753 for context on why AppImage is discouraged. Check BeeWare's documentation on Flatpak vs AppImage support. Determine if enabling Flatpak support requires adding a new target or modifying existing build scripts. No comments or maintainer input yet, so focus on understanding the technical requirements.
