One thing I ran into is that cabal sandboxes want consistent dependencies.
 And when users get to this point where they need to grab our latest
containers, they've got a bunch of core/haskell platform packages that
depend on the old containers.

I didn't mean that there was anything difficult about containers itself,
just that almost everything else depends on it.
