A TX window without a label ? Opps ?

What is going on here ?

Surely that editor window on the right hand side is a problem it doesn't have a sensitivity label on it ?

Answer is in the next picture:

This was a screenshot of Trusted Extensions running in VirtualBox with Seamless Windows mode turned on.The host was OpenSolaris 2008.05 (snv_91). Where I'm going next is to do it other other way around, so that the host is TX and the guest is also TX but with different label encodings.

What this does show is that even when TX is running as a virtualised guest the MLS enforcement for cut and paste still applies. The host was treated as "Trusted Path", which makes perfect sense in this case because it is the "hardware".
