I do not see much sense with sysctl as:
- check (cross-connected sockets) is required as we can start namespace
  with already opened socket
- this kind of sharing is not implicit but explicit as normal isolated
  containers _must_ have separate filesystems. In this case this
  sharing requires explicit host administrator action to link socket
  between containers
