personal belief that it's absolutely nuts to thrust SE Linux upon
unsuspecting Desktop users (who don't know what it is anyway) without
giving them the choice to turn it off.
If they don't know what it is, how are they supposed to decide to shut
it off or not?
Perhaps by way of a compromise it could be noted in the installation
docs if you want to disable SELinux you should add "linux selinux=0" to
the boot: line of the install CD. This would make the option available
the same way that xfs/reiserfs/jfs are available. The user isn't
confronted with it, but Linus[1] can then easily disable it at install
time.
The policy has already been fixed and swfdec isn't installed by default
so there is no need to do that. It is already documented in the SELinux
FAQ now but installation guide can have a reference too. File a RFE.
