	I think you hit a very important point here: the concern with
	containerized deployments is that they may be a barrier to 
	efficient troubleshooting and bug reporting by traditional methods
	(strace et al) -- unless a well documented debugging and analysis
	toolset/methodolgy is provided.

	Paradoxically, containerized deployments certainly sound like they'd
	free up lots of cycles from the developer side of things (no more
	building packages for N distributions as was pointed out, easier
	upgrade and regression testing), but it might make it more difficult
	initially for the community to contribute (well, at least for us
	dinosaurs that aren't born with docker brains).

	Cheers,
	Phil
