Application developers? What has SELinux policy got to do with application
developers?
The targeted policy "focuses on locking down specific daemons, especially
ones vulnerable to attack or to devastating a system if broken or
compromised". (From the SELinux FAQ on fedora.redhat.com.)
That's a tiny subset of applications.
