Any plans for allowing to dockerize GUI/RDP apps?

I was excited about the possibilities, until I came to this:

> The Windows Server Core image comes with a mostly complete userland with the processes and DLLs found on a standard Windows Server Core install. With the exception of GUI apps and apps requiring Windows Remote Desktop, most apps that run on Windows Server can be dockerized to run in an image based on microsoft/windowsservercore with minimal effort.

RDP actually worked in early tech previews, and I think Microsoft is trying to use some of this for browser-process isolation in Microsoft Edge, so maybe some day :-)
