Yeah, but, if that's the case, shouldn't lxc-ls be showing both the
containers?  If "lxc-ls --active" is doing the "wrong" thing, what is
the right thing?  If I do a container ls, I would like to know all the
containers that are on the system (which may not be possible without
knowing all the possible lxcpath values, I admit).
