I think this is too invasive.

This would work.  I believe that "config.service-manager.services = 'docker'" should also be accepted, even though it is a noop as pointed out below.

I like box detection.  I do not like detecting it via name.  Could we scan for /etc/release information? How heavy would this be on unrelated boxes, especially non-Linux ones?
