That's not an issue because the mounts are within the Linux VM. At least as long as you're not trying to implement volumes.

Make a better alternative for all the projects that suggest using `docker run` in their READMEs. Something that's easy to setup (re-use existing Dockerfiles) and something that doesn't depend on pre-existing setup from the user (which docker does).

> The much larger hurdle I see for Windows support is that I don't think you can setup virtualization without Admin privileges in the general case. If Hyper-V is not already present and enabled you'll need to install some hypervisor. Even QEMU needs Hyper-V for proper virtualization.

That's good to know. I didn't know that. I guess it will need to use emulation in some cases then.
