Yep. It works quite well. I've migrated all my containers from lxc
to libvirt-lxc because libvirt-lxc had a working user-namespace
implementation before lxc.

I'll test your diff tomorrow with a fresh brain.
I sent a similar patch to libvirt folks some time ago, looks like it got lost. ;-\

Yeah, I've been ranting about that for ages...
libvirt-lxc contains a lot of cruft to make privileged container
kind of secure. Some users still fear using the user-namespace.
