There's no "unconfined_domain" call in there, which you might want to add
then.

For me, I don't mind putting in modules that might not be fully finished yet
as long as they already have shown proper thought about domain naming (so
that future reshuffles aren't necessary) and the interfaces, as far as they
are already defined, are in good shape.

The rest is imo local to the policy and as such can be changed in future
revisions anyhow.

Style-wise, the module looks okay, so for me it's okay.

Wkr,
