Good point, would be nicer if it would not allow one to change to

I cannot answer the question why one is allowed to chcon -r system_r
<file> in the first place. (might be some technical limitation)
However the unlabeled isid and unlabeled_t sid are there for fail-over
so that security is not compromised if it does happen
