Yes. In Fedora 23+, we have a new SELinux userspace with CIL and we can
easily work with third party policies. I mean there are some issues for
both cases and it is always a good experience to discuss if we want to
ship it in distro policy or if we want to ship it with a package.

Can you add these policies to review or add a link?
