I know some basic stuff about SELinux, and I still consider shipping the packages by disabled and by default *and* without any pointer to a nice introduction is useless. I do agree that there are changes that need people to be educated first, but one can not just provide the stuff by default without any special reference to them an expect people to adopt and use them.
