Yea, sure, can you imagine, one needs to know how to use no less than *two* 
commands --- chcon and semanage --- this is waaay beyond the capabilities of 
any mortal sysadmin... And reading their dreaded man pages, oh my, I get 
scared just thinking about trying to read them...

There is a saying from where I come from --- people are not divided into 
competent and incompetent, but into whiners and non-whiners.
