Description

https://github.com/docker/cli/pull/62 introduced the capability to pass in driver-opt to services so that network driver specific options can be sent in per service. Swarm templating on this parameter would be very useful for a variety of scenarios that need to send task or service-specific information to a network driver.

A similar request was also requested by https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/33408.

@stevvooe has offered to help with guidance if there are any contributors that want to take this on.

Research direction

Start by reviewing docker/cli pull request #62 and the related moby/moby issue #33408, then trace how driver-opt is represented and passed through SwarmKit services. Done means Swarm templating can provide task- or service-specific values for this parameter and the behavior is covered by appropriate tests.
