I am actually very curious about the results of such a move, and know
whether it is going to have a significant impact today. Debian has
already tried experimenting with it:

But OpenSSL is not used by browsers.

I think the debate here is whether fedora (and in general operating
systems) can afford to be stricter than the browsers. As an OS our
attack surface is much larger than the browser setup, and thus it makes
sense (to me), to be more careful.

You previously said in this thread that the system policy *will* be used by browsers.

I would not be concerned if we had a separate policy that was suitable for use by browsers, which could be used by Firefox, glib-networking, etc. But we don't, and it's not proposed here.
