+1.

Its relatively easy to write some cron jobs that look at your images and tell 
you want containers have out of date rpms and need upgrading. its much harder 
when there are pip packages/virtualenvs involved. Having a nice way to let ops 
know (or automation know) that there are potential non system packages involved 
brings needed attention to them.

Thanks,
Kevin

I think  this is another feature we can overwrite some variables in
certain image.

Love this too.
Maybe we need a WARNING to the stdout to tell the operators.
