Description
**What I'd like:**
I would like superpowered bootstrap containers for initialization.
**Any alternatives you've considered:**
Instead, I run the container as a host container, run the initialization code, then
```sh
apiclient set host-containers.example.enabled=false
```
This has multiple downsides: (1) I need to include apiclient in the host container and (2) I can't interrupt the boot on error.
---
While there are security concerns with superpowered containers, these concerns are not any higher for bootstrap containers than host containers.
