All of the Squid modes of operation are relatively easy in a docker 
container, no more complex than in a VM and there are more than a 
handful of companies already providing Squid based VM products.

It would be very hard to setup One True Image for Docker because there 
are so many use-cases that Squid satisfies - many of which involve 
conflicting configuration details. This same reason is part of why we 
provide the wiki ConfigExample section(s) instead of shipping example 
config files for each popular use-case.
