Uhmm, is there "broad agreement"? I beg to differ... I really don't see
sssd inside of OS containers. Sorry.

I also don't see sssd covering cases where /var is not around and where
we can "disconnected" updates, the way Colin suggests.

I also didn't see sssd in control of system users at all, but merely of
normal users.
