I think doing it automatically is a bad idea. It doesn't save much over typing
"setenforce 0". It does however reduce the security of the system if you
do it by default and there is a vulnerable window before you get
"setenforce 1" entered.

The notice seems odd, but I don't think it would cause actual problems. I
just think it would be odd to know to boot to run level 1 without knowing
how to set selinux to permissive mode.
