Then my pessimism is not ungrounded :)

Seriously, the only way I would use Xen (meaning me, for my projects -
other people are sure to have different priorities) is as dom0 for
hosting other OS-es (mainly Linux). In the other direction (FreeBSD as
guest of other systems) there are other free and good solutions like VMWa=
re.

I'm all for sponsoring you or anyone else to develop the functionality,
but I probably can't even approach the amount such serious work would
require. I know FreeBSD Foundation has barred targeted donations so
would you (and the community of potential donators) be interested in
doing something like phk did a few years back, personally ask and set up
the infrastructure (paypal?) to receive a mass of small donations to
fund this work?
