We wanted to add Windows containers to the libvirt API. They are available under docker API thus the idea to add a docker driver. The docker itself uses some API to manage Windows containers but this API lacks documentation thus again the willingness to use just docker API to bring Windows containers to libvirt.
Oh, so with that we would be able to manage native containers on Windows? That might be interesting then. I did not know about that because last time I heard about containers on Windows docker was running a Linux VM in which it spawned the containers =D I did not know there's something new now.
Note that we don't build the daemon on Windows, so this would have to be a stateless driver. I think that's probably fine, since Docker already has its own daemon which supports remote connections (see DOCKER_HOST in [1]).
