FORCE may require you to give too many privileges to the virtual

True, if you're sure that the machine is running a kernel that respects
SIGNAL SHUTDOWN.

I'd specify a new privilege class, myself, for "Linux boxes that have
power over other Linux boxes but not over arbitrary SVMs."  I mean, for
a production site.  For just playing with I'd give it more privs than
it should have.
