Like not having RPM attach xattr's. 5+ years ago, I had
to swipe a hunk of code from libselinux and get things done
because the SELinux trolls hadn't written reliable tools yet.

Like patching python to attach xattr's dynamically. The ruke
5+ years ago was
	The application that creates the files needs to ensure
	that the xattr's are attached.
The trolls wussed out with python+selinux patches.

And note python eggs dynamically downloaded. Why oh why
should a sensible and intuitive and rapid upgrade be
forced back into *.rpm static content for no other reason
than the SELinux trolls wussed out on a patch, thereby
avoiding their own rather Draconian implementation rule,
5+ years ago?!?
