Hmm, what I really don't like about this scheme is the selinux handling,
i.e. previously we just pre-allocated a stream when we had to label the
socket, and then used it much later, when the first actual connection
was coming in. Allocating and then freeing it immediately during
labelling sounds not so attractive to me.

Maybe we can fix this problem differently. I mean we use
unit_choose_id() to make sure the primary name for the unit is the
pretty one. Maybe we can find a way how to make sure that the log
messages you are interested in are only generated after that? 

So, hmm, which log messages are you interested in particular to carry
the final name?
