init(8) in jails

Currently, the preferred mechanism to set up a virtual server in a
jail is 'jail /path/to/jail jail.host.name 1.2.3.4 /etc/rc'.

How about modifying init instead and teach it how to run a jail?  The
advantages of that approach would include the ability to send a signal
to a jailed init to have it run /etc/rc.shutdown inside the jail and
terminate the jail cleanly; currently, there is no clean method of
terminating a jail.
