label provider must interpret security labels; it merely provides a
mechanism for storing them. In practice, this facility is intended to allow
integration with label-based mandatory access control (MAC) systems such as
<productname>SE-Linux</productname>. Such systems make all access control decisions
<productname>SELinux</productname>. Such systems make all access control decisions
based on object labels, rather than traditional discretionary access control
(DAC) concepts such as users and groups.

The dummy_seclabel module exists only to support regression
testing of the SECURITY LABEL statement. It is not intended

Rationale
=========
The SECURITY LABEL statement allows the user to assign security
labels to database objects; however, security labels can only be assigned
when specifically allowed by a loadable module, so this module is provided
to allow proper regression testing.

and therefore better-suited to regression testing.
