Ah, so Docker won't be able to use the GPU still on Windows for the time being. Still requires running Linux with access to it from the sounds of it.
There is a rumor in the press that Kali Linux subsystem will be in the Windows Store soon.

Dear Microsoft,
With all the other problems/unfinished features in Windows 10 that affect all the 99% of non-savvy users, and the exceptionally clever surveillance system you have developed that can foil all sorts of clever attempts to block it and help keep us under your watchful eye, and that of unknown 3rd party partners with whom you do business and trust, and that we trust that your trust is well placed, thanks for fixing/improving the one feature that almost none of those non-savvy users even know about. That said, I can run Windows executables from WSL, but if I press Ctrl+C to kill the Windows process running from a WSL terminal, it continues to run as if backgrounded. This is unexpected behavior since Linux processes run in WSL will properly die if I press Ctrl+C. The Windows process running from WSL does not show up in Task Manager in any obvious fashion. I must use Process Explorer to find and kill the process. Sometimes bash scripts will have mysterious interpreter problems that are not reproducible. It can sometimes consistently take seconds to fork off processes in a script, resulting in very slow running times (since bash/sh scripts are practically all executables... even true, false, and [ are executables!).
Also, tmux sessions do not persist if I close a WSL terminal. This is also unexpected. Tmux heavily uses Unix sockets... how did WSL not have Unix socket support already?
