Agreed - I guess the point is that I was expecting chroots to be 
recusive downwards - whereas the statement is correct if we assume that 
chroots are a flat separate space.  It would be useful for them to be 
enclosures downwards with the parent always able to control child, but 
not vice versa, but hey
