Why would there be device nodes in a user home directory?  We can't
allow device nodes to be relabeled to something that is not a device
node type.

When/why did the existing rule for this become insufficient?

I don't have a problem with this, but I think the
files_delete_isid_type_files() interface needs to be split up.  Or put
the rules into the purge tmp interface.

files_delete_usr_files() needs to be broken up.
