Is there any way to differentiate the mouse from the keyboard, why are
the the same type? Can you get this patch upstream, it is a lot easier
to get it into rawhide that way.
Open bugzilla's on any you find, is the best way to get it fixed.

Yes this is one of the reasons that I like the ability to extend
contexts so all privs of staff_t are inherited by staff_mono_t plus the
exec checks.
staff_mono_t == staff_t + execmem execstack;
I think we are going to need an interface that says one domain can play
communicate with another domain, sort of the dbus_chat type interfaces.
I have not looked at interaction between staff_mozilla_t and staff_t yet.
