Also, why can't this be done just with xfrm labeling?

CIPSO is not there to provide a mechanism for separating the label of the 
connection from the label of the data, it's only there to provide interop 
with legacy systems.

If you need to have two labels for a packet (the object and the domain), 
then this needs to be supported directly by xfrm labeling.
