Because you can still leave it protecting other processes on the system
by either using pemissive domains or using audit2allow to generate rules
you can use to add a new policy module.

What would be really nice is if people reported these issues to bugzilla
instead of or in addition to griping about them here. Then either the app
or the policy could be fixed for everyone else.
