In the patch with copy-editing documentation following that commit, at 
"in at their option", s/in// ? Also 'rather than .. as mandated by the 
system': I'm having trouble parsing 'as'. It is also unclear to me what 
'system' means: selinux or PostgreSQL, or both? I suspect it is 
PostgreSQL, since selinux is still enforcing / 'mandating' it's policy. 
What about "rather than that the switch is controlled by the PostgreSQL 
server, as in the case of a trusted procedure."

+    Dynamic domain transitions should be considered carefully, because they
+    allow users to switch their label, and therefore their privileges, in
+    at their option, rather than (as in the case of a trusted procedure)
+    as mandated by the system.
