I was wondering, as docker seems to be more popular to administer servers, 
not local development systems, what is the point of docker connection? 
 It's utility seems rather limited.

The docker connection only works on localhost, not on with the docker 
deamon running on the remote target system you are configuring.  

Thus it is useful to configure the current system you are on, but not so 
much for a remote system.  You could remotely run an ansible script that 
works with containers on that system, or do some fancy ssh tunnel, but it 
is easier to just use command or shell and run `docker exec`.  

Thoughts?
