> Is it possible to do that? Or is the problem that docker inherits the host kernel
Since containers are "merely" sandboxed processes there is no "host"† to speak of and no "inheritance": it's just exactly the current kernel that exec() a process in a highly segregated environment (from mount points to network stack). So obviously that's not possible.
