Not natively but I continue my docker images.
For leia I have stop the headless patch because kodi take now take too long and reach the maximum build time permit on docker hub.
So I have switch to fake Xorg ( with XPRA) and pulseaudio ( kodi complain is no sound card/daemon)
The good :
* No more headless patch to maintain
* using the kodi ppa on ubuntu image
* Superfast to build
The bad :
* Overhead of CPU and memory because now kodi fully render it's interface
* unable to rebuild old image if kodi remove package from repo.
Here I have fully migrate to kodi 18 and no issue.
Then ok , it's not true headless mode but it's a good workaround for my needs

i had previously run kodi-headless but after the patch wasnt maintained for Leia I switched to just using a firetv hooked up to tv that I start up kodi then power off the tv. This worked somewhat okay but randomly firetv would update/reboot or kodi gui would just be stuck until I turned on the tv and then it would catch up. I wanted to go back to a better method and tried using kodi-headless again as it had Leia support finally.. but sadly it does not work (problems scraping/errors). I then tried out celedhrim's kodi-server docker and just pointed the data dir to my previous kodi-headless data dir, updated the port from 8080->8089 and was back in business. So far its working well. Thanks!
