Ol� Lu�s!

In the default vserver .conf, the vservers' root can't control the network interfaces, so vservers' root can't enable promisc mode and can't run a sniffer.

If the vservers' root could enable sniffing (you added CAP_NET_* to the vservers' capabilities list, for instance) then he could do it in eth0 or lo... So, afaict, chbind'ing to eth0: or lo: it's the same in terms of "sniffer protection".
