Nice.

VM’s are still too dependent on platform so this would be even better for some 
apps.

Though I suspect you lose some of the necessary pass-through abilities and 
optimizations for applications demanding more resources.

An extreme example would be high end gaming, where even optimized VM’s struggle.

Another would be disk intensive apps and anything requiring the higher 
bandwidth between CPU and peripherals like PCIe etc.

No, it's a container that can be ran within existing operating systems.
