Consider a future LSM that allows you to edit an attribute. Viable flags
might be LSM_FLAG_ADD_TO_ATTRIBUTE, LSM_FLAG_DELETE_FROM_ATTRIBUTE,
LSM_FLAG_REPLACE_ATTRIBUTE, LSM_FLAG_SET_ONLY_IF_EMPTY, and so forth.
This could be useful in an Bell & LaPadula implementation, adding or
removing categories on the fly. OK, no B&L would really allow that, but
The point should be clear.
