Are you concerned bundles will have to be written specific to both lxc and
lxd to support 1.25 and 2.0?  (one using lxc and the other lxd?)

simply kept all of the juju-1 lxc code and supported both lxc and lxd? As
Martin demonstrated, just swapping a bundle to use lxd instead of lxc
fails, which I think is to be expected. Is there something else you were
