Doesn't this statement imply the directory is ranged from the 
label to SystemHigh?

If a directory is U and a U and S process can write into it, I would 
consider this ranged. I know PitBull has ranged directories.

Whether the maximum is SystemHigh or a maximum SL is merely an 
implementation detail.

Back to the original question, on the desire of having multi-level 
objects I could probably go either way.
