I would prefer when the 

| Requires: policycoreutils

would be in an own subpackage. 'policycoreutils' is badly packed (brings in
'initscripts', 'python' and 'pyxf86config' dependencies) and would bloat up
'initng'.

Having the SElinux %script in an own subpackage with

| %package selinux
| Requires(pre): initng = %name-%version

would allow people without SELinux to keep a small system.

Alternatively, core stuff (content of the current main package) could be moved
into a '-core' subpackage which is an 'Requires(pre):' of the main-page. The
main-page would require and execute the heavy-weighted SELinux stuff only. This
alternative has the advantage that 'yum install initng' would do the thing which
is correct for 90% of users while special environments (e.g. chroots) can
install the -core package with reduced dependencies.

'policycoreutils' are not required by much packages and it would be not good
when 'initng' would bring it in.
