Good news to report: I have X running natively in a container using a vt on
the host's graphics adapter!!! 

The extra spaces you pointed out was all that was in my way. I wonder if
getting the kernel to trim whitespace is a viable thing for the to-do list?
I am sure it will catch others out sooner or later.

I have a bit more evaluation to do but I plan to write it up on the Arch
Linux Wiki. I will let you know when it's done if you are interested.

Thank you for your help Daniel.

John.
