That is what I was trying to describe. We still need something that lets the software in the container know it needs to do something. I may be blind but right now short of replacing the internal udev, or modifying the kernel I don't see a solution for letting software in a container know there is a new device it can use. Once we get the notification issue sorted out I think we have enough to bring up a full desktop environment in a container and be able to say we don't need anything else from devices unless someone discovers that checkpoint/restart actually needs minor numbers to be preserved.
