What i would like to know is if there is interest to see such
functionality in FreeBSD?

I am asking first to see if there is some consensus about this as a
feature, needed or not!
If interest is shown i will transform the patch to allow:
- ipfw(8) to manage the contextes create/destroy
- ipfw(8) to manage interface membership. Closing the race of two
parallell clients modifying different contextes.

It is quite handy feature, which can be exploited even to scale on SMP
machines by extending it to bind a specific instance(with its
interaces) to a specific CPU/core?!

... which is also done by VNET+JAILS.

You should probably port it to VNET :)
