OK. I think this was due to me still being stuck on the workings of an
order constraint, but of course if the failures are instead attributed
to the container, this would happen automatically already. True.
(Incidentally, I like "attribute", "ascribe" better than "delegate"
because to me, they better fit what's going on, if we sticked with
"delegate-failures". Just saying. ;-)

I'd prefer to keep that separate (as proposed below). Because if an
action of the *VM* really fails, I may want an admin to look into it
(why could the bloody hypervisor not start/stop it?), which is different
from restarting the VM if one of the resources within it needs that.

Yes, I think I like this too now.
Uhm. Would "container" imply ordering + colocation, or would we still
need them grouped (resource_set'ed, whatever)?
My, design is hard. ;-)
