<para>The combination of the three operations above ensures that it is possible to log into the
- host's user account inside the container as if it was local to the container. The user is only mapped
- transiently, while the container is running and the mapping itself does not result in persistent
- changes to the container (except maybe for generated log messages at login time, and similar). Note
- that in particular the UID/GID assignment in the container is not made persistently. If the user is
- mapped transiently, it is best to not allow the user to make persistent changes to the container. If
