I've never used this provider, and while I do think you're right that the provider probably shouldn't change the attribute on you, the docs for the `docker_container` resource[1] suggest populating the `image` argument with t

I read a good chunk of that wiki link, but didn't really come away with an understanding of how it differs from just using Docker for sandboxing an app. Did you have any insight there you might share?
