I believe we understand the issue now, my point was that in the future
let's have this discussion first.

Let's work with this approach to build a proof-of-concept that at least
the DML hook will work as advertised. We've got alot of time till 9.1
and I think that if we can show that a module exists that implements
SELinux using the DML hook, and that a few other hooks are needed to
address short-comings in that module, adding them won't be a huge issue.
