Since I hit send before I actually attached the patch...  The patch
can be found at:

Sorry about that.

Ok I will take a look at it. One thing I also want to think about is a mechanism to prevent translation for certain apps. One thing we are thinking about for MCS is to allow an file to be in multiple categories. So a c1-c3 translation might look like

"MedicalRecords,MassGeneral,Cancer"
or
"CompanyConfidential,IBMNonDisclosure5"

So we would want files to show this, but if I do a ps -eZ command I don't want "System High" processes to translate it. So does MLS ps command translate? Or does MCS have to add the concept of "system high"?
