Relationship between snaps and containers, if any

Well, from an *external* point of view, all the docker mysql processes
are the same, on the same port, just with different IP addresses. That's
the very nice property of docker for "hyper-elastic" workloads. I don't
think snaps will be useful in that context, unless snaps find a way to
live inside docker containers, but that's OK since snaps are useful in
other contexts.
