Yes, that's true, but this is not the case.
Actually lxc at this time not so good in security, so I think, every 
small hardening step can help a bit.

By the way, when will it possible to prohibit a container to read and 
write the dmesg of the host system?
Also what about reading and modifying cgroup settings?

Thank you,
