proc provides a lot of information that userspace tools rely upon.
For instance, when running top, you can draw per-process figures from
what we have now, but you can't make sense of percentages without
aggregating container-wide information.

When you read /proc/cpuinfo, as well, you would expect to see something
that matches your container configuration.

"free" is another example. The list go on.
