Smack has options that are filesystem independent (smackfsdef= smackfsroot= smackfsfloor= smackfshat=) instead of the context= SELinux seems happy with. Since there is no reason that a file system even really needs to know what these values are it would be completely unreasonable to teach every filesystem about them. The information is completely controlled and used by the LSM. Of course, we could use something other than mount options (vfsctl? sorry - only kidding) to set the LSM specific information, and that might be the right approach.
