Subject: I have begun merging XWindows Controls into Rawhide.

But the complexity of this stuff is just getting nuts.

I don't thing we should have more then one type for xserver.  Allowing a
confined user to transition to user_xserver_t is just nuts and ends up
having awful policy for getting xdm_xserver_t to work.  Why in the world
would we allow a confined user to start and XServer?  And if they can,
why not just allow them to start xdm_xserver_t?  In Rawhide right now no
users can start and Xserver except unconfined_t and he starts
xdm_xserver_t to make sure the transitions work properly.  If someone
actually has a use case where they need user separated xservers then I
say write that policy off the main stream.  You can still theoretically
run multiple xdm_xserver_t at different MLS levels.

Having four macro parameters is confusing as hell, and needs to go.
