> Currently when a TaskConfig is for a Mesos container task and it has an image. We currently place the image as a volume mounted at {{taskfs}} in the sandbox. Thermos, or other executors are launched outside the image and then are expected to chroot into the {{taskfs}} directory.
> However I think it would be a fine addition to allow executors to set the {{image}} property of the Mesos container instead of putting the image as a volume. This enables some tasks to get around a limitation of the MesosContainerizer where certain container paths must already exist in the image and the host.
> See the [documentation|http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/docker-volume/] for the table that describes this.
