--------------------------------------
This is a great idea which was suggested multiple times by users of Marathon.

> Support relative host paths for container volumes
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-2374
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2374
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: containerization, docker
> Affects Versions: 0.21.1
> Reporter: Mike Babineau
>
> There is no convenient way to mount sandbox subdirectories (such as unpacked
> archives from fetched URIs) as container volumes.
> While it is possible to access sandbox subdirectories via $MESOS_SANDBOX,
> this presumes the container is expecting $MESOS_SANDBOX to be passed in.
> Furthermore, it also expects the container already knows the resulting
> subdirectory paths. Unfortunately, since the archives are extracted by the
> fetcher, operators can not control these paths. Path changes to the extracted
> archive must be accompanied by a container image change.
> One potential solution:
> Add support for relative paths to the containerizer. If the containerizer is
> given a relative host path, it simply prepends the sandbox path before
> passing it to Docker (or similar).
