if you really wonder, take a look at i.e. FreeNAS as other projects which uses 
BSD jails as containers for virtual multi host environments (i.e. mailservers, 
LAMP stuff, Database servers, Samba stuff and proprietary / binary software 
etc) which all have their own IPs as root as user contexts in fs as userspace 
and security isolation (system as net / firewalling etc) is a major reason. 
This is one of the most used scenarios today.

many greetings,


niels.
