OK. (I think I'll want to submit two patches: 1. -d should wait until init is finished, to ease grabbing the container name 2. add an optional -n flag for those who are quite sure they want to name the ephemeral container something nonrandom. (The caller would have to make sure that name is available first somehow.) I'm a bit confused about what upstream is, though. git://lxc.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/lxc/lxc still seems to be behind https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/lxc_0.8.0~rc1-4ubuntu28.debian.tar.gz by about 75 patches, and lxc-start-ephemeral isn't even in git. So what would the patch be against -- lxc-start-ephemeral as installed by the latest quantal? And will it eventually land at lxc.git.sourceforge.net?
