I think your approach won't work as is, at least in any tcb-enabled
system (see http://www.openwall.com/tcb/) for two obvious reasons:
- file where root shadow entry is stored is not /etc/shadow;
- password hashing algorithm in the host system and in containers may
  differ (this issue is not specific to tcb).
