(Whiteboard: [generic-worker]) 

We may also need a new provisioner for OS X. We should speak to releng to find out how they currently provision macs in scl3. There are also some other ideas about using vendors.

Need to work out how to manage isolation/containerisation on OS X. This may be a combination of chroot jails / temporary user creation (like we have on windows).
Provisioning is IMO not a blocker...
If we can get 4 macs running generic worker with temporary user an chroot,
then we don't need a provisioner and research should be very happy.
Assigning all generic worker bugs to myself for now. If anyone wants to take this bug, feel free to add a comment to request it. I can provide context.
