We have a few conflicting masters here:

 - Improving "manageability"
 - Staying relatively small by default
 - Continuing to drive forward containerization

storaged isn't the only thing in this section either, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1303546
for discussion about Ceph/GlusterFS clients.

I think it'd be good to step back for a bit and
consider what we can and cannot do with the technologies
available.    It's might be the case for example that rpm-ostree package
layering will make the most sense for some things like
NetworkManager-team.   On the other hand we have
increasing work on system containers, and one unexplored
area there is adding some concept of host dependencies to
system containers.
