default 'docker run' options?

I am running virtualbox images inside docker containers and this requires launching docker with either

docker run -i -t --device=/dev/vboxdrv fommil/freeslick:base

or

docker run -i -t --privileged=true fommil/freeslick:base

Obviously, the former is preferable, but I have no control over the way the target script launches the docker instance (it is managed by a third party) other than turning on/off privileged mode.

Is there a way to set system defaults for docker run such that all images launched on a Linux boxen will use --device=/dev/vboxdrv?

Because --device is an "operator exclusive option" it can only be specified at the invocation of the docker run command. So no, there is no way to default that option.
