Dirk, I agree with most of that - but in many cases it comes down to simple
things like: "the right tool for the right job".
In my case there was a need to solve these issues with jails - relatively
quickly - so I just decided to do it, instead of "wasting" time
(unfortunately my life is very busy).

I am not saying there are no better ways to tackle this in the community, I
just needed a solution and decided to put it on Github to share it.

Peter
