The bit I was missing here is that I can run "mount --make-rprivate /" *inside* the CLONE_NEWNS namespace, so that it doesn't modify the system's global state, but just what I am seeing. (Does anyone actually understand these semantics?!) We can put that into our unshare -m scripts, so I guess the problem is solved for us, but still, the question remains if systemd should override the kernel default here. (Hence downgrading the bug.)
