I am of the same mindset, but bear in mind that you do plop new code into the kernel with VMWare (in the form of drivers) on a VMWare guest OS..

You mean host OS? yeah, you do. But adding and removing a driver is much different than modifying the whole OS for paravirtualization. While there are plusses and minuses for any solution, I think the driver solution for the host OS is preferable. YMMV, of course.
