- Autofix seems like a good idea
- Perhaps Exempt button should only appear, if AutoFix doesn't work
(not sure how to detect that)
- To avoid a system user clicking Exempt, perhaps Exempt should only
exempt the application only this time. i.e., when the application is
launched again, it will generate a selinux warning again. That way,
the user still reports the issue to get it properly fixed, but at the
time, has the tools to get his work done and his apps running when he
needs them
