Having the caller specify a name directly is racy, since the name could have been taken in between checking that it doesn't exist already and calling lxc-start-ephemeral. Allowing lxc-start-ephemeral allows it to take care of the mkdir (and retries) to generate an LXC container name in a race free manner, but this needs -d to return the name in a machine-readable way, so that we can create ephemeral LXC containers from scripts. Please add a machine-readable mechanism to "lxc-start-ephemeral -d" and then we can modify adt-virt-lxc to use it.
