We switched to using the entire context.  There has been some arguments 
over the value of
MCS versus better support for Type Enforcement in general.  Nautilus for 
example, now can display the security context of files and allows you to 
modify it.

We would like to be able to add support for "types" in mailers, 
editors(ooffice), and other tools.
