How many users are likely to do this, though?

I think you really want to make this be something which the
application can specify by default that they should start in their own
cgroup.  One idea might be to it to the applications menu entry:

http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/

... so there would be a new key value pair, "start_in_cgroup", that
would allow the user to start an application in their own cgroup.  It
would be up to the desktop launcher to honor that if it was present.

One nice thing about having the desktop launch each application in its
own cgroup is that it becomes easier for an desktop task manager to
have a UI listing that lists things in a format which will be somewhat
easier to understand than process listing.  The cgroup would be a
useful way to organize what is going on for each launched application,
and it would allow people to see how much memory some application like
evolution really requires.  (On the other hand, maybe they would be
happier not knowing.  :-)
