(and I did only know about the issue, not the fix).

I been exprimenting with a vrescue script that reuses the host
environment, but starts in a temporary chroot in the vservers context
with the vserver directory mounted as /target and most of the host
system bind mounted in the root... To be usefull for user not trusted to
do anything on the host it will need ro bind mount.... and probably
allot more. Can post a proof of consept script if anyone is intrested.
My own use is just to start rsync, and i pretty much trust rsync.... So
it's not realy a *need* for me right now, but i can see the need :-)
