Hey Slicer,
Not answering to your questions but the docker-provider I created is likely
to be able to boot Docker containers in 'machine mode', I just didn't have
more time to dig into it to make that happen :-)
On a side note, the latest version of the plugin is broken on recent Docker
versions but It has been fixed on GitHub already on a branch called `next`.
I just need to do a bit more testing before pushing it to RubyGems.
Cheers,
