Is any of this enabled yet (even if only in the dev channels)? Being able to run arbitrary containers locally would make a Pixelbook a lot more powerful.

Yeah I'm in the market now and I'm looking for ways to justify dropping a grand on a Chromebook.

Technically, termux is a container although of a very different kind...

But then again, you don't need a pixelbook to run that :(

Same with GNUroot which I prefer over Termux. They both run in a container using a fake Chroot.
