question about /etc/rc.d/jail

There's a lot that the current jail(8) can do that /etc/rc.d/jail isn't
prepared to handle. Rather than fix up the rc script, I'm working on a
new jail(8) that includes a full configuration file. In the meantime,
the only why to take full advantage of jail configuration is to work
outside the rc framework.
