Do you consider the checkpoint / restart is part of the container progress ?

I am asking that because there are some cases where the container should 
be more virtualized if the CR is to be take into account.
For example, the network devices index is not virtualized in a 
container, this is not a problem without the CR. But with it, we won't 
support any application binding to a device or using a device index.
