…not so much actually adding the glue for integrating this nicely into the OS, but this will come in one of the next releases, hopefully.
Oh, and all of this works unprivileged too, i.e. you can do "importctl --user pull-oci" to download a container image into your home directory.

@pid_eins is this going to be a podman alternative?

@pid_eins I have been experimenting with this to see if I can recreate fedora's toolbx using nspawn. One hurdle I came across is that mstack containers are limited to managed or no user namespacing. Is this a hard limitation, or something that may be lifted in a future release? https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/fb4bfe651b7dda85b0545d340eac21c7988fe383/src/nspawn/nspawn.c#L6612-L6613
