Basically right now, you can't run two third party services at once, because they both need to wrap the Docker commands. Now you can use multiple services at once (Flocker, Weave, etc.) True that it's just a transforming proxy, but right now it's something that's lacking for the Docker community.

This isn't a problem specific to Docker though. If you want to transform any HTTP API composably, you want something like this, and my head is swimming with all of the awesome things you could do with a general proxy that easily allows this.

I also agree that it's a problem rearing its head in the Docker community, but that seems incidental to the problem itself. This is ostensibly fixing a Docker problem, but it could do much more for us all if it didn't artificially constrain itself to that domain. That's all I'm saying.

Still, neat.
