The documentation I periodically update is at

https://help.ubuntu.com/13.04/serverguide/lxc.html

but this isn't mentioned there.

I'd like to see about making it more robust, so hopefully this will be
fixed at some point.

We can probably restrict the name substitution to only happen in the
container name and file paths - though even that can be problematic
in some cases.

If you (or someone else) has time to look into it that'd be swell.
