Are folks interested in an easy to use Docker based Bitcoin development environment? (or is there already one that I simply couldn't find)

Background: I just got back into coin development, and while the instructions are much better than they used to be, I found the requirements around specific versions of Ubuntu a bit restrictive and something that Docker helps a ton with. I put together a Docker image for myself, with some fancy additions like the cloud9 SDK for a web-based IDE.

If folks around here are interested in this, and there isn't already a canonical development image; I can polish up what I have, document, and publish it on Docker hub to share. I think this would be useful mainly for folks interested in learning more about Bitcoin or altcoin code through hands on experience.
