I suspect though that you eventually really need to add the typebounds
statement.
Also one thing to keep in mind is that what I said before also applies
to permissions where the bounded domain is the target. This, atleast to
me, in the beginning was a little confusing.
Example:
if you have this requirement:
allow somedomain_t child_t:processs signal;
then this is required:
allow somedomain_t { child_t parent_t }:process signal;

It does lengthy initialization in advance under relatively privileged context and then switches to a less privileged one after the moment when the actual request arrives. After that it will create a chrooted container and join all threads to a new SELinux context.
