Hence the use_*_home_dirs booleans.

It's certainly a great idea to provide a security model where the home
directory can be protected.  It's also a great idea to provide a knob to
turn that off.  Fortunately we have both.

Also, with NFSv4.2, selinux works across an NFS mount.  Which was quite
a surprise when RHEL7.3 turned it on by default, but now I have selinux
labeling for home directories across NFS.  That's useful for a
relatively narrow range of situations but, again, it's something you can
disable.
