Yes it is in -current but we are still tweaking it.
there will be an announcement on how to use it when we are happy with 
it. It is slated to be an announced feature of 8.0 though it may come 
with a "probably wisest to not use in production until 8.1" note.
In 8.x vimage is integrated with jails meaning that you control it
with the jail utilities.
