Hello Stefan Tomanek,

SELinux absolutely no.  ACLs are only very rarely used by me.

I had a filesystem with 15 U320 (<230 MByte/sec)  drives  of  300 GByte,
mean realy fast and expensive drives but with arround 180mio  INODES  it
took more then 3 days to recover from a crash, since then I have  stoped
SELinux and ACL plus some other tools which write several  million  ZERO
size files into the filesystem.

The biggest problem was, I was not warned about this mess. Same for "The
Gimp" and VLC, mean, I set the diretory permission to 000 and  does  not
more allow to write to it.  If a program crash because it can not write
its crap, I deinstall it and will never recommend it to anyone..

Note:   Programs which disallow to disable such things are crap.

So for "wget" it should only  be  used  if  the  user  set  explicite  a
commandline option or in the wgetrc.  Of course, it should not activated
hardcoded or as a default in the wgetrc.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
