I thought more people would be in agreement with you, but that appears not to be the case.

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.
