[lxc-users] Run GUI in LXD 2.0+

[Matlink]

Well, the lxc 1.0 version didn't require any network stack: it mounted the X11 required files in the container.

However in lxc 2.0 I would like a solution like this, not using x2go or ssh X11 forwarding. 

The ideal solution for me would be to be able to run 'lxc exec test firefox' to run Firefox in the container.
