No, it's not a release blocker; it's been like this since we invented
security labels, which seems to have been 9.1. But security labels were
toys in 9.1, and this deficiency is one reason they still are toys.
We need to have a to-do item to get rid of it, rather than claiming
things are just fine as they are.
