Well if we want to get separation between the master and the agent we will
either need different entrypoints into the domain (Scripts).   Or we will need
to build SELinux knowledge into puppet.

Another solution would be to just make puppet into a single (very powerful
domain).  One thing we have talked about with puppet was to make i easy to
extend puppetd policy to allow it to manage certain domains.  puppetd_t would
be an unconfined domain but if you disabled the unconfined module then you
would use a tool like sepolicy generate to generate policy modules for the
domains puppetd_t will be administrating.
