Agreed! Drag's comment about his "IDE" of vim and python vs. Eclipse did indeed bear some resemblance to the discussion about SELinux vs. AppArmour. What a pleasantly surreal experience!

Thanks to Drag's misplaced comment, I just had a bright idea: Eclipse IDE for SELinux!! Use all the features you've come to expect with using Eclipse to develop Java, C, or C++... and now you can build your own security framework! Testing your framework is simply a few mouse clicks away via the "build/debug" menu.

</end silliness> ;-)

Obviously the *right* approach is an Emacs specialized entirely for writing SELinux configurations. There's even an XEmacs fork with the right name: SXEmacs. Just reuse the name, write a new selinux mode, rip out all that boring stuff nobody uses like text-mode, cc-mode, vm and gnus, and you're home free! :)

Does it have vim bindings? *runs and hides*

"I just had a bright idea" - Tresys did it!

See SELinux Policy IDE aka SLIDE. It may not be the full embodiment of your dream, but its a starting point. ;-)
