Regardless of my opinion on the sanity of the hypervisor architects. I have not seen anything that indicates it will be hard to support the hypervisor doing everything or most of everything for us, so I see no valid technical objection to it. Nor have I ever. So I have no problem with additional patches in that direction.
Ok, that's great to hear. I know your bi-directional approach isn't exactly what Ben wants but he can support his machines with it. Maybe after some time we can agree to move from that more towards the totally abstracted scheme.
