Jar files are containers, in some fundamental way, I'd say. Perhaps since they come from Sun and Solaris had zones, et cetera?

OSGI was probably the closest thing that tried to embrace that model, and it didn't turn out very well (putting it mildly). If the JVM actually did provide the same guarantees and restrictions as a real container, that would have been very useful.
