I agree with what Seth said, so I'll only respond on this point.

When the profiles are good enough to ship by default, Ubuntu historically has
preferred to ship profiles in the package that is under enforcement, since you
get the security policy by default (without having to opt-in to another package)
and because it allows the maintainer of the package to update the rules (ie, the
maintainer of cups need only worry about the cups package as opposed to cups and
apparmor).

This of course isn't without its problems, but wanted to clarify this point wrt
Ubuntu at least.
