>Is there any support for UIViewController containment with storyboarding?
Yes, but you have to careful about what you mean by "support". I see two possible misapprehensions here:
1) The storyboard editor knows nothing your custom container view controller, so you're not going to get any magic ability to just plop your view controller into the storyboard editor and draw two segues from its sub-viewcontrollers (the way you can with certain built-in container view controller types).
2) Storyboards have been oversold, or perhaps I should say mis-sold. They are not about reducing code (although they can reduce some code as a side effect). They are about the fact that the notion of scenes and segues may be a better object-oriented organization for keeping your code straight. So if you think about it that way, there's nothing wrong with some or all of your segues turning out to be custom segues where you end up writing just as much code as before - perhaps more - but in different places.
