Experience tells us that a set of human-editable configuration files is
very reliable. Maybe said set could be read by each client after asking
the policy daemon; this way, we can both (a) let the local administrator
take the matter in his hands, and (b) have a fallback if the policy
daemon is not running, which leads to (c) the local administrator can do
away with the policy daemon entirely and remove (rpm -e) it on
locked-down hosts (hoping nothing is shipped which *requires* the policy
daemons, of course).

Just my $0.02,
