> FWIW there is (was?) an RFC for implementing SELinux and in my opinion this (or alternatively apparmor) could already add some „security“.

I suppose [RFC 41](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/41) is what you mean. I would say “was”, unfortunately.

A recent Discourse discussion of sandboxing or constraining software for security was [thread 7792](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/7792), but it doesn’t seem to have gone much of anywhere.
