I think we should also generate file context specs for user mail spool
(is currently not done AFAIK in common module policy).

But if genhomedircon would not hardcode keywords and identifiers, then
i could accept them through the command line options and map it to
some hardcoded initial identifiers where/if needed

then one could specify on the command line the keyword, and any other
identifiers. So that is a bit more flexible so that when in the future
we get other instances where we need to generate contexts for some
location we dont have to edit the script we can just pass it some
additional new options. But yes then i suppose it would need to be a
standalone script. Added value there is that we then no longer have to
maintain to genhomedircon instances, one for libsemanage and one for
monolitic policy and text-based module policy.
