I've been encouraging developers around me to make more use of the 'toolkit container' pattern, to make builds easier and more consistent. I noticed that this came with overhead though: some people were manually typing in "docker run.. " incantations, and not always getting it right. Others would set up scripts, or aliases, or Makefiles, or...
