Do a research on how Parallel Space works
Here's the app I am talking about: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.parallel.space.lite&hl=en
Running an app inside of a container can help us resolve an issue with HTTPS filtering limitations in Nougat.
From what I read, it looks to me something like Island (from the dev behind Greenify), which leverages Android work profiles. Further reading:

I meant to add, IMHO, it's quite cumbersome, & I got tired of using Island pretty quickly.
@TPS awesome, thanks for the tip!
I wonder, isn't it a way in the Play store for an ad blocker? Would it violate their terms to filter traffic of an app cloned inside of such an Island?
I'm sure the GPlay policies apply to apps in the || Space/Island, but maybe more subtly, like your approved addon for various browsers: If any of these Android@Work profiling apps is extensible enough, maybe an addon to those would be approved, perhaps if marketed as a business security app, especially released in conjunction w/ https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardForAndroid/issues/775#issuecomment-246055811.
And here's an open source example (that we can't use, but we can at least read&inspire by): https://github.com/ameshkov/VirtualApp
Some Google-fu gives https://github.com/googlesamples/android-testdpc, which looks official, useful, & under Apache-2.0 license. 😀

It seems that VAExposed is also the similar app.
Okay, so after all, it's not Island and DPC.
This is more of a full-scale virtualization like VirtualApp and this: https://github.com/DroidPluginTeam/DroidPlugin
Frankly, GPL shouldn't be a problem. I don't see it as a part of AdGuard anyway, it should be a companion app, that can be released under GPL
