As Tim mentioned, we are actively working on a framework that will allow for the creation of zones that run non-Solaris user space environments. We are using the term "BrandX" to refer to the framework, and the environments that plug into the framework are called "Brands".
We are still quite a way from being ready to put this framework back into Solaris, but it is rapidly approaching the point where it could be usable by those willing to put up with some rough edges. Our plan is to release the code through OpenSolaris in the near future, as a branch off the main tree. I would like to support Tim's request for a community to discuss the creation and support of non-Solaris zones. Since the framework to support this will be called BrandX, I suggest that the community also be called BrandX.
