This would need a bit more hacking to Anaconda, but what about an
"Expert security settings" dialog with a note that most users should
leave these untouched. In this dialog, experienced sysadmins may
switch off selinux, tweak or disable the firewall, and praps other
stuff too.

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.
