I was thinking about the newrole gui that we talked about at the SELinux 
Symposium. The gui might have a dropdown list of categories and a 
password entry field and it would exec a new window at level. I found 
seobject.py and the setransRecords class which will probably work for my 
purposes right now. I'm not sure if exposing all of the categories is an 
issue.
