At the risk of sounding ungreatful for all of the hard work done on vserver - what is the 'use case' for this feature? As I understand it there is nothing to keep the host from playing with /dev/kmem or otherwise tampering with the kernel, so I can't see how a feature like this will provide any strong guarentees; unless heirarchies of contexts (which would be extreemly cool) are planned. Or is it just intended as a 'speed bump' / politeness feature? Thanks for all of the hard work and the new stable version.
