If 'image' and 'options' do not have some well know semantics than it'll end up 
being a total PITA for end users. For example, if one external containerizer 
program (e.g., Deimos) decides it wants 'docker:///ubuntu' to describe an image 
but another external containerizer program wants 'docker-image:ubuntu' then 
we'll have to some how expose to the user which external containerize program 
is running so that they can conditionally "configure" their ContainerInfo. Ugh, 
it sounds likes this was not considered in advance. :(

My hunch is that we'll be able to define a generic enough scheme for describing 
containers using 'image' so we can leave it as is for now. Although, I'm less 
convinced about 'options' ... how is/does Deimos try and use it now?
