I think manually specifying a port/service on the Service/URL. Category tab could also work, depending on the situation.

Forget the application, I'm just trying to figure out what 'Service/URL. Category' means. Is that a typo or is there a hidden joke in there?

Haha, 'application-default'? That sounds like a cop-out. I'm going with B or D, no doubt.

I'm torn between B and D. Manually specifying the port/service might give me more control, but the file blocking profile sounds pretty comprehensive.
