I feel this is the sort of thing that needs to be done modularly. LSB compliance is provided modularly, we don't require default desktop installation to be LSB compliant. But a Fedora install can be made compliant via the installation of a package.

Agreed 100%. So why not implement the ban on running these apps with SELinux rather than with permissions? Any LSPP/CAPP compliant machine will be running SELinux anyway, and that way, there could be an selinux-policy-capp package for those that need it, and those that don't can do without.
