I wonder whether it would be possible (and feasible) to not transition on privsep_preauth at all *unless* a privsep preauth type is specified in openssh_context. Currently it falls back to a hardcoded type to transition to if openssh_contexts does not exist. Then again, i would not want to risk breaking or regressing some of the nice functionality openssh in fedora has for selinux.
