Agreed re: the general idea, but isn't CloudABI in particular superseded somewhat by WASI? Its repo seems to say it is: https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi
(WASI is similarly capability-based, as I understand it!)
I know, but support is still in FreeBSD. My big long term plan is:
1. Work on FreeBSD cross in Nixpkgs, because I need a way to pin forks and run nice tests without going insane. (We already have NetBSD cross.)
2. Rig up a booting image that uses https://github.com/InitWare/InitWare, the fork of systemd.
3. Add support to CloudABI in initware.
4. Bang on drum for other OSes and upstream systemd to implement this stuff we can can good portable abstractions -- I think this is our best shot to get "portable containers".

I can share an example from the main function of the [self hosting Firefly compiler](https://github.com/Ahnfelt/firefly-boot/tree/master/compiler):
main(system: System): Unit {
