We are interested in using X and an associated desktop/window manager
(most likely GNOME/Metacity) in an MLS environment and I'm trying to
figure out what all needs to be addressed to get there. A couple of
areas that I've thought about so far are window labeling and cut and
paste. For window labeling the window manager ought to be able to use
the context of it X server connection to decorate the window with the
level but what happens if for example a user does a newrole and changes
their level? For cut and paste dominance checks are needed would it be
reasonable to do these as an extension of the XACE and if so where can I
find out more about how to do this and if not where then?
