It would be nice to have an official Docker image #85

this way it would be very easy to test anything out and also to have a proper way of un/installing.

This application requires an X server and thus Docker is not even remotely possible.

There might be a misconception here: Docker and an X server aren't excluding each other. In the beginning of 2015 Jessie Frazelle published a famous blog post where she explained how she runs things like Chrome or Spotify. Since then many containers that required an X or Wayland server came out.
