take over supply checks?

E.g. make base images for programming languages, systems, etc and guarantee security.

I think many small companies would like it a lot better if they got could externalize the cost of running docker images with all their dependencies.

This what Cloud Native Buildpacks do. There are already three major suppliers of these: Heroku, Paketo (by Cloud Foundry folks), and Google Cloud.

I'd be pretty thrilled if Docker encouraged buildpack use. It would be a huge win for them.
