No, you are right, it is not implemented yet.
This is something planned but it didn't had time.

Cool thanks for the pointer.

I think I will merge soon the patch:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=20100204211710.722565370%40mai-009101017029.toulouse-stg.fr.ibm.com

so watchdog will be no longer needed.

I am at present working on making possible to enter the container (needs 
a kernel patch) and specify image file for rootfs.

Thanks
