Network isolation is a feature of the backend and not of sbuild. In this case, the default sbuild backend (schroot) does not have support for it yet. The bug is even linked in the wiki section you quote. If you want network isolation today, just pick one of the other backends that sbuild supports via autopkgtest (the lxc backend probably supports network isolation). If you want network isolation with the schroot backend, then you have to improve schroot and not sbuild. I also think that, if you want a docker builder today, it would be *much* easier to just add a docker backend to an existing package building software like pbuilder or sbuild and thus avoid re-implementing all the "package building" logic and focus on the docker specific things instead.
