Dear sfrazt,

Good job! May you figure out if there are "unwanted" side effects if one may drop the  sys_time  capability for a container, i.e. will something else will be denied what one will probably need to use?

@Dev: If not, this dropping should be added to the reference manuals and example configuration snippets.
