I think you have been remarkably good about our caution in accepting
this. You certainly have my admiration for your patience.
What would probably help us a lot would be to know some names of large
users who want and will support this. NEC's name is a good start, but if
a few other enterprise users spoke up it would help to make the decision
a lot easier.
My own experience with SE-Linux has been fairly unfortunate - I have
tripped over it too many times and years ago adopted a practice of
turning it off whenever I could. I suspect many people have similar war
stories, and there will thus probably be quite some resistance to a
feature I accept could well be of significant use to some classes of users.
