Hello,

For now, there is the docker-volumes tool: https://github.com/cpuguy83/docker-volumes

It allows you to do several operations with regard to volumes: ls, inspect, export, import, and rm. It can indeed be used to remove orphaned volumes.

This tool is the basis of the work for this same feature set, which is slotted to be included in docker 1.9: https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/8484, https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/14242
