* Capability-centric design
* Single machine scope
* Tree of sandboxes
* Weaker inter-sandbox fault tolerance
* Standardized IPC system
* Model powers low-level OS features
* More detailed inputs/outputs from sandbox
* Configuration and building in separate files
* Sandboxes can encapsulate other sandboxes
