I'd suggest

    current->container    - the current EFFECTIVE container
    current->master_container - the "long term" container.

(replace "master" with some other non-S&M term if you want)

Hmm.  You actually need a linked list, otherwise you have replaced a one
level flat structure with a two level one, and you miss out on some of
the applications.  VServer uses a special structure for this.

Nope! :) This is pointer to current/effective container, which can be anywhere in the hierarchy. list should be inside container struct.

So why store anything other than the effective container in the task?
