No, it's not that bad, but IMHO it's more of a pain than the realtime
LSM, or the PAM solution. It's just too confusing for users when there
are 3 different ways to do the same thing for no apparent reason. So
I'm recommending they stick with realtime LSM until the new rlimits are
fully supported by most distros.
