Indeed it does, thanks! I didn't need to run iw under the container, it appeared there instantly after moving the interface from the host. I don't know what you mean by adding vifs to the moved interface, but thanks for the advice. :) However, I think this should be automatically set up by the "lxc.network.type = phys" option, so if no one has a clear reason of why this isn't supported I'll file a new issue in the tracker.
