This was using the recommendation of "each process belongs to a single
container that can be attached to controller nodes later." So while it is
indeed possible for the controllers, whatever they are, to be hierarchical
(and most assuredly should be), what is the objection against grouping
processes in single-level containers? The only difference is that now
when we assign processes to specific controllers with their attributes set
as we desire, we are assigning a container (or group) processes instead of
individual ones.
