Mario,
While it would be possible to do this, it is in some sense
harder than it was for S8. S10 is still a very dynamic
release so the interpositioning layer would need constant
work to cope with the on-going changes in the
kernel/user-land boundary.
As far as easily moving a zone around, take a look at
6480464 RFE: zoneadm attach should patch/update the zone to
the new hosts level
Now that the S8MA project is done I am planning to get back
to this RFE. This is a much more straightforward solution
to the problem than a new brand.
