    ; Rewriting lxinit & friends to allow this sort of admin model is going to be harder than I thought, and since r151022 is already late relative to prior releases (it's a cadence-breaker thanks to Loader, Python2.7, and Kayak-for-ISO), I don't know if getting ipadm(1M) for LX zones would work.  You're the strongest endorser of doing it so far.

    I read Brian's comment as wanting to stop network configuration from within
    the zone => no ipadm. That's what I want too - if I set up a Linux zone and
    hand control over, I don't want the zone root user to be able to change
    the IP address.
