Without comment on the specific proposal (which I haven't studied yet),
I do have a general request:
I would ask that we only change the policy syntax reluctantly and as
limited as possible, and only for strong need. Every time the language
changes, it can be a lot or little work for us to sync up our parser for
setools. Since we have a requirement to maintain backwards
compatibility with older policy syntax, each change can be a lot of
work.
