I also click on that big yellow star on one panel whenever I think to. One thing I like: it lets me mark a message to be deleted, without actually deleting till I tell it to. That means I can check only for new ones, when that's what I want. In fact, I have even tried to report some of the things it tells me must be bugs. But I do not, alas!, recall reading any message there that meant anything to me. Since this is so, despite the fact that I've been running RH/F for nearly ten years, and spending a lot of time online for several before that, I concluded that I was likely not alone in my failure to spot straight up; so I posted about it, and the length of this thread appears to corroborate that. I'm sure SELinux will *become* user-friendly, perhaps already in F8; the sooner the better. It will come whenever there have been enough shocks of recognition of the form "You mean we have to explain *that*?!
