Though I've recently started with Nexenta, this sounds something very similar to the zones feature in OpenSolaris. Is it so?

Zones is light weight operating system level virtualization.

SELinux Sandbox doesn't use virtualization though there is svirt. The Linux equivalent would be things like linux-vserver and openvz.

Zones are created using the code that was
the equivalent of SE Linux (ie, Trusted
Solaris), but the purpose is to provide
very-low-cost secure virtual machines.

Sandboxes are much finer-grained.
