Hi maintainer,
by using different virtualization system one get used to
call "destroy" the action of stopping a vm.
In lxc context destroy really means to remove the container.
It would be nice to actually requiring something like -y
to really remove the container.
I known this kind of change can break scripts and may not be
easy accepted, but I think it can avoid some headaches.
I've attached a proposted patch
Regards
