Description of problem:
When I use an install ISO image labeled public_content_t, virt-manager will relabel it as virt_content_t without any warnings. It will also change its owner and group to qemu. It should allow virtual machines to read those files (which might also be shared via http, samba or nfs).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-0.8.2-1.fc12.noarch.rpm

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new VM.
2. Select an ISO image labeled public_content_t.
3. Continue all the steps until the machine is started.

Actual results:
The ISO image will be labeled virt_content_t and its owner and group will be changed to qemu.

Expected results:
A warning should be displayed if the permissions of the file need to be changed or even better allow the virtual machine to read public_content_t files.

Additional info:
I'm also using the following packages:
libvirt-0.7.1-15.fc12.x86_64.rpm
selinux-policy-targeted-3.6.32-89.fc12.noarch.rpm
