This rule would allow any confined guest to change the 'comm' value of any task
on the system, if the system otherwise allowed it. These days that would likely
be mitigated somewhat by DAC protections (ie, when qemu is run as non-root).
Other than DAC (and MAC), what other protections exist that might make this rule
 acceptable?
