Its a nice idea and I can see the attraction but I can't see how you'd
make it work in practise.

I'd like to see this one explored. The trouble is the root privs
problem for containers, I don't know if that is still an issue?

The other thing I think we should explore urgently is an sstate
artefact equivalence mapping server.

That might get us huge amounts of sstate reuse, particularly given our
reproducibility improvements and mean that the bootstrap times become
less of a factor.

That along with a public central sstate mirror for the core of the
system might make a really interesting step forward for the project.

If I had to spend time on anything, I think this would be the next big
win for the project.

Cheers,

Richard
