P.S. As an aside, the provision in projects/jailconf/'s jail(8) that
it's not possible for 'jail -r' to remove all jails _unless_ the '*'

those two jails regardless of whether any other jails exist. (Sorry if
this has been discussed already -- it's just an issue I ran across while
examining the jail(8) man page in Jamie's framework.)
I think I must have communicated something badly - "jail -r *" is the
way to remove all jails without specifying them, but if your only jails
are foo and bar, then "jail -r foo bar" will do the trick.
That sounds absolutely sane; exactly the behaviour I'd expect.
The sentence that led me to think otherwise is the second sentence of this
excerpt from jail.8@r230776:
An argument of
.Dq *
is a wildcard that will operate on all jails. To prevent errors,
this is the only way for
.Fl r
to remove all jails.
Yes, I can see what you mean. I'd tell you that sentence obviously mean
something else, but at the moment I'm not sure what I meant when I write
that :-).
P.S. What is the timeframe for the jailconf framework to be included in
a release? 9.1, 10.0, ...?
Yes, those. I had missed the cutoff for 9.0 (and then waited around
until 9.0 was actually released), but I'll be putting in it soon.
