You could add your simple example using the same postprocessing functionality that YouTube is done with. Take a look at /farcry/core/packages/lib/postprocess.cfc to see how it's done.
Fully functional containers would be much more elaborate - not just to implement, but for users to manage. You could probably do something like it by using a postprocess function to insert preexisting containers.
