A desire for compatibility makes "+" look good.
"." is appealing for SELinux-only because it's inconspicuous.
Speaking as a fairly new SELinux user/admin, having a "."
next to every file in my ls output is just as useful or
non-useful as having a "+" next to them, so does it really
buy anything? I end up needing -Z either way.
Based on the kind of real-world problems I've had, the most
useful thing ls could tell me about a file on my SELinux
system would be that it *should* have a label and *doesn't*,
something like:
if ( selinux_enabled )
if ( label == NULL || label == fs.defaultlabel )
use "!"
else
use " "
else if ( anything else )
use "+"
