Very cool, I'm excited about this.

I assume you mean this:

+        print "Do you want $file:" . substr($line, 6);
+        print "Yes/No/Display [Y/n/d]? ";

I suggest that you simply delete this code entirely, and install
every .te file.  It's outdated for several reasons:

1) With the new dynamic boolean support, SELinux enforcement for a
   particular daemon can be turned off at runtime, instead of
   at policy build time.
2) The targeted policy is significantly smaller than the strict, so
   there are no space/size concerns.  
3) It's always been annoying as hell :)
