For HPC if you are interested in migration you need a separate IP per container. If you can take you IP address with you migration of networking state is simple. If you can't take your IP address with you a network container is nearly pointless from a migration perspective.
Eric, please, I know... I showed you a migration demo at OLS ;)
Beyond that from everything I have seen layer 2 is just much cleaner than any layer 3 approach short of Serge's bind filtering.
Beyond that I have yet to see a clean semantics for anything resembling your layer 2 layer 3 hybrid approach. If we can't have clear semantics it is by definition impossible to implement correctly because no one understands what it is supposed to do.
Note. A true layer 3 approach has no impact on TCP/UDP filtering because it filters at bind time not at packet reception time. Once you start inspecting packets I don't see what the gain is from not going all of the way to layer 2.
