Are you nominating this for 2.6?

Also, I haven't followed the development of the private-files and
private-files-strict abstractions closely; that said, I'm mildly
dubious of preventing read access to bashrc et alia in private-files
rather than private-files-strict; I think it might make it less usable
for ssh-force-command types of behaviors where a script might be the
only thing allowed to be invoked and backstopped by apparmor.

I guess I'd like to see the reasoning behind why something should go
into one or the other.

Thanks.
