Yes, I believe that is true but also consider the scenario where a Solaris Global Zone boots a non-global zone and then sets (ie, changes) that non-global zones root directory with chroot. The parent (kernel) process of that non-global is now set to a different root directory and that affects all future users logging into that zone.
Therefore my understanding was that if the root user changed the root directory of the global zone kernel (PID 1) that would affect future users that log in??
