Hi Rusty !
Very good move, that I have thought about too... I believe that since we're creating a Virtualization Menu, we should add OS-level-virtualization there as well (aka containerization) - the following things: IPC virtualization (aka IPC namespaces), PID virtualization, UTS virtualization. Those are 3 basic components that went mainline into 2.6.19.

P.S. maybe rename those components from "IPC namespaces" to "IPC virtualization" or even to "IPC containerization" it better reflect it's internals?
