Adding libseuser functionality to libselinux?

[Daniel J Walsh <dwalsh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thoughts on moving some of the functions available in setools into 
libselinux.

Basically I want to add the ability to addroles via the adduser command  
(shadow-utils) and thus
make dealing with roles easier in OS.  The problem is that I don't want 
to require setools  in
order to get this functionality (libseuser).   

I need the ability to get the roles that are available via the currently 
running policy and to manipulate
the users defined in the local.users file.  I then need to have 
genpolusers type functions to allow me
to change the running policy.  We don't need the functionality that 
deals with policy-sources.

What do you think of moving these functions into libselinux?
