Really?
This is not killer feature, this something "imperfection" (sorry, Dirk. Without insults). And I was forced to migrate to own solution when defined it. Basejail must has not only base system's configs as well as all installed software needed in jails. So, I have 5 jails and only one installation of nginx/php, one installation of MySQL and so on. Just update basejail's software and restart services in all others jails.
