The general answer would that the icinga developers could ship their own
modules first. There's a blog explaining how to do it [1]. It allows the
developers to make updates of policy with the package and therefore
faster development and deployment.

However in long terms it's better to incorporate a package policy  to
the system policy. You can either file a bug against selinux-policy or
try to contribute yourself using this [2] howto.
