I'm quite hopeful for the limited re-introduction of hypervisors to "containment", if only because I've become disappointed with the lack of power app authors have to specify fine-grained, strict security details. This is because most of the fun lockdown toys that linux has, selinux, seccomp et al aren't easily "stackable", and those toys have been used by the orchestrator to perform the containment. And that's great, but it means containers all end up with broad, generic policies (that only care about container breakout) which can't be further restricted by app/container authors.
My hope is that lightweight virtualisation will give back the ability for app authors to tighten their container's straight jackets. Personally I've got my eye on kata containers.
