But now i'm struggling with the patch :-) - considering the plan to
have a 'lxc' binary which invokes subsystems.
The patch makes it easier to use lxc-start, but when we have a lxc
command, the user is not intended to run lxc-start himself anyway.
So this somewhat renders the patch useless as the lxc binary can of
course determine the container name and provide it on the command
line.
The lxc command probably would take an even more complex config file
format, allowing e.g. include, text replacement etc. and would write
out a rcfile on the fly suitable for lxc-start and use other parameters
as needed.
Thus, for now, i revoke my patchset.
Regards
Michael
