Integrating these nice utilities in the util-linux is an excellent idea. A few different simple utilities, along with some simple SysV-init scripts (that go in /etc/init.d of ns for convenience) and a generic init suitable for namespace(polished simple_init.c) is all needed to experiment with ns.

Util-Linux already has such tools in git, unshare works with all the name spaces and nsenter let's you create a new process in an existing namespace.

I'm quite looking forward to being able to launch a container in shell.
