Yes, I agree detecting 'traditional' distributions in a CT and 'actively' supporting them is definitely a useful feature. > For what specific use case do you want this?

My CT is not really directly based on a distro, the /sbin/init just executes the program I'm interested in running. I had tested this CT on another, non-proxmox machine with lxc/lxd where it ran fine. Adding an /etc/os-release would not be a huge deal, but the experience would be much nicer when it'd work without additional changes - so I'm trying to help make that happen ;).
