Maybe others have opinions. That's true for sysfs. The selinuxfs is a different beast and can make its own choices. The biggest gotcha is that you need to remain backwards-combatabl;e, so anything that's there *now* has to remain there for a rather extensive deprecation period. Keep in mind that Andrew Morton just this week had an issue with /proc/net that turned out to be because he had an FC5 policy loaded, and that ancient policy didn't know that /proc/net is now a symlink... What info would *ideally* be available for userspace? Let's figure that out first, and work backwards from there...
