I don't see how they're ridiculous.

Note your patch for selinux does exactly the same thing in the NOSUID
case and your NO_NEW_PRIVS flag. Right?

- if (bprm->file->f_path.mnt->mnt_flags & MNT_NOSUID)
+ if ((bprm->file->f_path.mnt->mnt_flags & MNT_NOSUID) ||
+ (bprm->unsafe & LSM_UNSAFE_NO_NEW_PRIVS))
new_tsec->sid = old_tsec->sid;

Ugh...well, I guess if it doesn't store any security data associated
with files, only with file names, then there's nothing for it to do.
Like I said before though, I think SELinux is the only sane LSM.

This actually brings up something we need to think about - if we're
heading towards being able to do bind mounts as non-root (which is
necessary for me) we'd need limits on e.g. the number of mounts that can
be made for a given uid/cgroup.

I have a picked-from-thin-air hardcoded limit of 50 in my setuid binary,
but I just realized that that's 50*RLIMIT_NPROC which is kind of
large...

Hmmm...hadn't considered that either. So the issue here is if a server
admin has e.g. a NFS mount and my build tool makes a new copy of the
mount namespace, a process may still have it busy when she goes to
unmount it?

Yeah, definitely more flexible, though realistic use of seccomp depends
on someone making a nice userspace tool to compile sets of syscalls like
"no networking".
