Please don't confuse features with workarounds.
I need neither SELinux nor encrypted rootfs on my desktop (at least
now). So I'm not trying to workaround SELinux related problems. I just
don't need it/them.
I think its unfortunate that so many people believe SELinux is something 'for
the server' and not needed 'on the desktop'. That probably comes from the first
policy being deployed for server processes (if my memory serves correctly). I'm
not attacking your own position on this point Suren, but it is hard to
understand why you would think this unless not really understanding what SELinux
is meant to prevent.
The core developers working on SELinux have many times said the desktop is
precisely where it is most needed, especially confining browsers and plugins. I
think my personal information on my laptop is worth the extra security.
