So I was mostly thinking in the context of postmarketos, where we have a less-weird filesystem layout to work with and can assume that user data lives in the home directory and can be on its ownfilesystem.

That said: Yeah, Android+Linux is super weird if you're used to GNU+Linux:) And I'm pretty sure it would be more complicated, since I'm basically proposing that we protect data but not code; I think you'd need to protect /data at a minimum, maybe more (I forget where Android sticks the "internal storage" directory). That said, I think you could do it on Android.
