Closing this is wrong. Upstream is responsible for making Xorg work, not
for delivering a reasonably secure desktop experience, that is the job
of the distribution maintainers. Upstream is just saying use SElinux,
that is not the best way to do this, keylogging is trivial under the
current setup, Windows / OSX do not suffer from this. Under Xorg it is
possible to write a one-line command line that captures input and posts
it to a web server.
