	This does look interesting for deploying server-side software.
Since it's not a VM, it could be used for even more than just pre-canned
demos with sample data -- deployment of production installations onto
cluster machines, particularly borrowed ones, could be substantially
eased.  (Cf. DM-209)

	It does not fulfill requirements for client-side tools (like
many uses of the LSST Stack) such as being able to use the user's
customized [i]Python environment.
