While discovering FreeBSD, jails & related management tools (ezjail, bastille, pot, etc) there is something I can't figure out: Why not give pkg the ability to actually create the jail that will contain the packages we install? something like pkg -cj webserverjail install nginx...

I even tried pkg alias but didn't find it. Am I missing something or is the...
