Pretty heavy cross-posting here, could you perhaps reign this in to the 
freebsd-jail@ list, where it can be discussed in-context?  This will help keep 
the noise down.

Wow, overall that's really quite cool.

- Do you have a rough timeframe for when you want feedback?  (I would like to 
give this the time it deserves).

Feedback right off the bat, (please tell me if I'm off track here):

- After a short skim- I do not believe the qjail utilities referenced are 
appropriate for the FreeBSD handbook.  There are many 3rd party approaches to 
handling/managing jails, some of them with quite long histories and loyal user 
bases- it is impractical and not appropriate to try to cover any/all of them 
here.

- The "Jail Cell" vocabulary is a serious departure- and may create some 
confusion- I'll read thoroughly to get your context right.  In what I 
understand to be the majority of uses, it's confusing to think of the hardware 
host as the 'jail' and the jailed instance as the 'cell'.

- The references and history cite some works, but do not cite the original (and 
possibly most important) document on jailing, 
http://docs.freebsd.org/44doc/papers/jail/jail.ps.gz

- There are a number of common lexical errors right off the bat, (There instead 
of Their), etc…

I look foreword to reading this on my subway commute this week-
