I don't have such plans for now, but if someone wants to tackle this I
believe it should be doable.

Out of curiosity, what would be the use case of having a modular policy
on a Buildroot generated image where packages can't be installed at
runtime?

Yes, I'll send another series with an example qemu selinux defconfig and
new SELinux tests after this one.
