selinux: Not quite MLS.

Not quite MLS.

I would like to create a login that has access to one category at the highest sensitivity level, but in another category only has access at a lower sensitivity level. For example, on a system where SystemHigh is s0-s3:c0.c3, one login could be defined as something similar to: s0-s1:c0.c3, s2:c2.c3, s3:c3, while another login could be defined as s0-s2:c0.c3, s3:c0.c2 .

Am I correct that MLS policy cannot support this scenario?

Is this possible under any old, current, or developmental SELinux policy?

Would it be possible to write such a policy with the existing SELinux user/kernel land?

Thanks for any pointers,
