What about the case where a file might have multiple MAC labels?
Not that I plan to do that, but given how often I get asked if a
file can have multiple MAC attributes you might want to explicitly
define how that might work. Especially in an environment where LSMs
don't stack.
Trusted Irix supports both sensitivity and integrity, and although
Trix uses a single (large) label to include both it was a coin toss
decision between that and two separate labels.
