show rootfull and allow setting it on restart?

[maxandersen]

Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe

with #2427 I can now create new machines with rootful - nice.

But in resources you can't see if it is on or off:

and when clicking restart no option to turn on/off. For this I'm forced to go to the terminal.

Describe the solution you'd like

show the rootfull or not mode in the overview.

on restart have option to tweak the parameters that are changeable between restarts (i.e. rootfull)

Describe alternatives you've considered

It depends on containers/podman#18479

I had similar issues when connecting to the local socket, since the location was hardcoded.

It could use this rootful boolean as well, to pick the socket. Same goes for the docker socket.
