[lxc-users] lxd: Initial design specifications

[overlay fs]

A wishlist for ephemeral containers.
-----------------------------------------------------------

> lxc start c2 c3 -e Create a new local container called "c3" based on local container "c2" and have it disappear on exit.

> lxc file push -R <source> [<source>...] <target>

Wishlist: Add an option to apply a uidshift:
              -lxc start: copy c2 to c3, then apply uidmapshift.
              -lxc file push: recursively copy a directory, then apply
uidmapshift.

> lxc.mount.entry = /lib /root/myrootfs/lib none ro,bind 0 0

Wishlist: Add an option for copy-on-write mounts:
              -lxc.mount.entry = /lib /root/myrootfs/lib none ro,cow 0 0
