That's spot on. SELinux works pretty much out of the box in the last couple of releases. Keeping policy in sync with development versions however is a more tricky problem and on development machines, it is going to not so smooth yet especially so if you are working on a new filesystem like she does. Ideally, policy modules should be part of the packages instead of being in a separate central package. Atleast for user space, that would eventually be the right architecture.
