Then sabayon++ can add or remove applications from the menu system and
autostarting.
Then I and other package maintainers could ship desktop users like
xguest user, or corporate desktop user and only run the apps that are
appropriate to that type of user.
The biggest benefit for the SELinux team is we can write policy that is
appropriate to the type of user. Currently xguest policy has to
dontaudit xguest_t sending dbus messages to packagekit, just because the
packagekit client starts by default. If we have the ability to
customize my xguest desktop environment, and future proof it, then we
can remove the dontaudit. If a xguest user tries to start packagekit
client, that would be an audited event.
Forgetting about SELinux, I believe this would be compelling to
administrators of large networks of desktops.
Isn't this what the reduced functionality/options interface that kde used
to offer (and maybe still do) is for?
