Great proposal!

I had the idea to build my Debian packages in a clean docker container 
instead of using cowbuilder etc for some time now. But due to lack of 
time and complexity of available solutions never got really far. Do you 
happen to have a minimal example that would work for most projects and 
does not depend too much on opinionated Debian specific tooling?
