Does Wine run well from a container? I always found bottles a bit annoying.

I haven't tried it myself (yet), but I don't see why Wine wouldn't work from a container, if you propagate access to the display into the container, as I have done in the Dockerfiles in my post.

Here are some quick references I found that suggest this works:
