Orchestration systems that don't adopt the user namespace can't really
run containers requiring admin correctly without giving them root minus
some capabilities, which is rather unsafe, so the expectation is that
they'll all figure it out eventually for security reasons.

Well, lets just say it adds one more reason to get kubernetes to
finally run rootless privileged containers correctly ...
