I think we had something in virt-tools that was able to pull an image from
docker hub and run it with lxc. Or was it part of sandbox? I don't know.
Anyway, what would be the benefit of that?
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.
