Yes, we need a man page talking about this feature first, how to enable
it, compile it into the kernel, how to manage it, what subsystems it
interacts w/, what sysctl nodes it provides, etc.

W/o man page(s) the feature is not complete.

$ man -k vnet
revnetgroup(8)           - generate reverse netgroup data
$ man -k vimage
XvCreateImage(3), XvShmCreateImage(3) - create an XvImage
XvPutImage(3), XvShmPutImage(3) - display an XvImage

hmm.. nope...  jail has something about vnets, but not nearly enough
to be useful...
