Attached is my first crack at the argparse version of semanage. Right now it just parses the command line and spits out the dictionary raw. Please mess around with the command line and make sure that it behaves how you would expect. Some of the names in the dictionary are a bit weird and I'm having trouble getting sensible semantics for fcontext -e but it should be parsing the command lines properly. Also not all of the help text is in place yet. If you want to add some help text either send it to me in an email or send me a patch and I'll apply it to my repo. I still need to commit the latest changes to my github account but once I do you should be able to get the same file from my semanage-argparse repo on github. After we're sure that the parsing works as we'd like and the help messages are sensible to people I'll work on gluing this frontend back onto the seobject class that semanage uses to do that actual policy store manipulations. Someone pointed out that I have some spelling mistakes in there. I will make sure to address them in the next version once I add more help text.

David, Miroslav was working on something similar.

I think the big problem with this is going to be handling

       Output local customizations
       semanage [ -S store ] -o [ output_file | - ]

       Input local customizations
       semanage [ -S store ] -i [ input_file | - ]

Once we have this, we need to rewrite all of the man pages to be

semanage-fcontext, semanage-user, semanage-boolean ...

Quick question. What does the -E --extract flag do? Its listed under local flags but I can't find reference to it in the man page for semanage.
