The way to success as an everyday OS isn't through bad policy, it's through education and clarity. Put in the right policies but make them easy for the end user to understand and change. Commands like "restorecon" suck (as an everyday OS). But if, attached to a mv (or its gui equivalent) was a message: "the default permissions for this directory are to make the file available to X, Y, and Z. Would you like to make these files available, too?", it would work.
Even better is a mv -yes (& gui equivalent) which does it automatically.
