Ok, now for the clarification. Someone here at the office was wanting a cross-platform way to find out the hostname of the host the container is running on inside the container. We made another suggestion for that, so forget about the docker angle on this for now. But, /etc/hostname is a multi-distro standard for where the hostname is located, so I would like to make openrc prefer it over the setting in /etc/conf.d/hostname if it exists.A I suppose whether we populate it by default might be a separate question.
