I'm rolling out some servers providing a graphical desktop, and everything is 
fine except this: our desktop software of choice is XRDP which needs a 
certificate. It ships with a self-signed one, but that gives warnings on the 
clients, so I'd much rather go with a FreeIPA managed one.

So after installing XRDP, I issue the command:

ipa-getcert request -f /etc/xrdp/cert.pem -k /etc/xrdp/key.pem -r -w

Problem is, this fails with SELinux enabled, because ipa-getcert is not 
permitted to write to /etc/xrdp.

Proposed solution 1: Use a better dir, the certificate and key are configured 
in /etc/xrdp/xrdp.conf so I'm guessing certs can reside anywhere. What's a good 
default one? Somewhere in /etc/pki?

Yes, use /etc/pki/tls/certs/xrdp.pem and /etc/pki/tls/private/xrdp.key . The directories /etc/pki/tls/certs and /etc/pki/tls/private are writable by certmonger.
