I mixed a reply to Bjoern A. Zeeb's question about ezjail supporting the
config format in

  <C79A7703-7626-42B1-959D-055F16C071E9@lists.zabbadoz.net>

into the remarks I had about the general design decisions. Of course,
the FreeBSD project is free to deliver any infrastructural code it
chooses. My objections to the jail.conf may be biased, but I still stand
by them and am still curios.

No, ezjail is completely written in sh, so there is little chance to
"adjust". Implementing a config file parser is out of the question.
