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]).
