No, no, no, no.

Blacklists are bad, mmkay.

The reason is that quite dangerous new /proc entries get added
(think /proc/kpageflags) and suddenly they are enabled inside container.

I think it does. Grouping always becomes either too fine or too coarse.

Granularity can not be tightened as it may break existing users.
So new granularity options are going to be invented until finally it is
per file.

Just say no to drugs.

As a side note:
/proc/kcore should be more or less safe because it is under CAP_SYS_RAWIO.
