To clarify, are you saying that we should have?

semanage_user_add(semanage_handle_t handle, sepol_user_key_t key, 
sepol_user_t data)
semanage_user_del(semanage_handle_t handle, sepol_user_key_t key)
semanage_user_modify(semanage_handle_t handle, sepol_user_t key, 
sepol_user_t data)

The sepol and semanage functionality is different - it's just the data 
structure that's shared.

I don't know - it's just a design thing to allow future change - Joshua?
I'm not sure if the wrap functions add value, but at least they don't 
cause any harm.
