I don't know if it is because "FreeBSD has insufficient man power" to
fulfill all related tasks. I just think this is the root cause why we
still have "simple jails" while Linux folks pushed their train hard and
now are far away with many "jail like" containers solutions allowing
projects like Docker to happened.
