Jess,

I was reading your blog post and got stuck at


   1. Build a different image for each user and create that user inside the
   container at build time. Then, run the container as that user.
   2. Build a single image that runs as root, creates the user at runtime,
   and then runs the notebook server itself as the user with sudo.

What would prevent you from the following: (i) build a single image as
root; (ii) spin up a container and mount the home directory (plus files
such as /etc/group,passwd,shadow) on the host to the container file system;
(iii) then run Jupyter notebook server as the user?
