Chris, You may want to reach out to Greg. He has some pretty serious reservations about Docker and security. He can also tell you a bit more about Shifter since NERSC is so close to him. From what I've read, Shifter can take Docker containers as input and it converts them into something that can run safely (I don't know know what the end results looks like). Fortunately, I think Shifter has some fairly deep hooks into Slurm (I seem to remember you being a Slurm kind of person). You might also reach out to the Shifter folks at NERSC.
