Feedback appreciated -- what do you think should be on?  What do you think
should be off?  Right now I think we'd make an exception for ssh (a really
big exception since it's a network facing service, even).  Dbus and
default syslog variant also spring to mind which might be.  Those might be
able to start defining a category of "things needed to run a desktop
session" or something.

iptables, auditd, restorecond sound like keepers -- maybe a category here
would be things that add to system security in a default install.  For this
category we'd want to be careful, do we also want to allow fail2ban or
denyhosts to run by default if they're installed?

Other categories or specific examples would be good.
