Within the systemd project we have been working on a scheme we call
"factory" where packages can drop in static descriptions in /usr/lib of
stuff they need in /etc and /var to work properly. The idea is to then
use this information automatically at boot if systemd finds /etc and
/var empty to populate them.
I dont think /etc the right place to be used here based on the
evolution taking place so suggest containers should source that from
elsewhere.
I cannot parse this?

/etc is "administrator space" and evolving into "administrator only space" which means eventually nothing will be placing or flushing or populating there other then the administrators themselves.

In other words if containers have to "populate" /etc they are doing it wrong hence the overall design is wrong
