It's that, but also a way to have things containerized for you. There's
some security isolation provided by the container. There would be
a tradeoff of different attributes when running inside the container
vs. outside, so I think we'd want to keep both methods.
(That is, when we actually have both methods. Running Fuego without
a container is not currently supported.)
I will actually admit here that it's a kind of bad form on my part to try
to preserve a feature that doesn't exist yet. But it's on my long-term roadmap.
