Not terribly, I think. I mean, it's gas which has had enough energy pumped into it that electrons aren't really bound to individual atoms. I guess small amounts could be contained with cleverly placed electromagnetic equipment... after all, a plasma tv manages it, right? But I don't think it's very convenient. (I am not a physicist, and when I was a chemist I never worked with plasma.)
