Docker integration

[Populus]

Greetings.
I wanted to make the suggestion that Docker containers show up in the tree view of the datacenter view in Proxmox VE.
Datacenter -> Node -> VM/LXC -> Docker container(s).

The reason for it is because it is annoying that some Proxmox containers contain several Docker containers and there is no 'quick-glance' to see what's running what.

It would be a Q.O.L improvement.

We do not support Docker containers on top of LXC containers. If you want to use a Docker container, you should do so in a VM. Hence, we probably won't add such a feature any time soon as it would just encourage a use case we want to avoid.

Maybe you could try running the 'Pulse' monitoring application, it can be run in an LXC container and provides an 'at a glance' wealth information about the Proxmox environment, with docker and proxmox backup etc.
