Indeed.

Eric, Paul's recommendation is much better than mine. What I recommended
does amount to a "policy modification"; it's like hacking the Apache
source code to make it do what you want; it's a major change. Paul's
method is just configuration tweaking; it's like editing httpd.conf to
tweak the behavior.

The SELinux booleans are made precisely for this purpose: to let
everyone do slight changes to the way their system behaves. If you were
annoyed before that you had to change the policy to achieve a goal, the
booleans are the answer to your need - they're there to give you "ropes
and buttons" that go and control the system in a non-intrusive way.
