In a couple of sites I'm running, I need to add some custom content (pdfs/static html) files to the site root. This option would also be useful if you want to hack on a custom theme and push it to the container without setting up a complicated deployment process.

I'm not opposed to this being added as an option, as far as I understand it could introduce complications with updates, because updating the Co-op Cloud app wouldn't update the running version of Wordpress.

For PDFs I would recommend uploading them in the WP media library, and using the "redirections" plugin to set a neater URL.

I think wp-content is already in a volume, so it could be directly edited in /var/lib/docker/volumes.
