This looks really cool, I can definitely think of a few use cases where a docker image might come in handy (vs a service like iron.io that just supporting a variety of languages on IronWorker). At the same time, having to build an image for small ad-hoc tasks might get a bit cumbersome.

Yup, I know that building a docker image for every job can add a lot of friction to the project, but it adds lots of flexibility to the users.
