Our friends at SUSE have a script that automatically generates portions of
an AppArmor profile for Samba based on the Samba configuration:

I'm not entirely sold on the idea, as a hand-authored security policy
can serve as belt-and-suspenders against misconfiguration or a broken
management system that allows unauthenticated users to create too-wide
shares.

The usability gain is undeniable.

Thanks
