It make as much sense as the rest of this thread and what it proposes. 
Yes I realize this is extreme but no more extreme in my view than 
disabled by default or offering the option at install time. There is 
already a way to disable it if you know enough and if you don't then you 
need it on anyway. For crying out loud my girlfriend uses Fedora, her 
use is much closer to average than any of the rest of us and SELinux has 
*never* caused her a problem. My mother, as computer illiterate as they 
come( no disrespect intended Mom) does not have any problems. This 
conversation is pointless, I see a hundred posts about people 
complaining about people discussing things like the GPL on a developer's 
list, a subject quite relevant in my view, but when the idea of 
disabling practically the only security present on the system is brought 
up , it actually gets entertained? Disable it?!?What?!? It seems to me 
that entirely too many people have their priorities seriously out of 
whack. In today's world, security better be the first consideration. The 
internet is a war zone. Any scum bag with a linux box can make a snazzy 
web page and lure in the unsuspecting. I don't think anyone is claiming 
SELinux is the  be-all end-all of security tools but considering its one 
of the very few *real* security tools available I don't see how this 
thread has managed to get this long. I've said my bit.
