I've tried to repeat that and adding an interface from the host makes it appear right on the container only. Of course, it needs a different name, otherwise you get a "command failed: Too many open files in system (-23)".

Yeah, that sounds logical. Anyway I'll be filing a wishlist item so that moving a physical WiFi interface can be specified from the config file (using "lxc.network.link = phy0" doesn't work either).
